MyBoneYard Rewards You for Recycling Your Old Electronics [Recycle]
Need more incentive to recycle your old or unused electronics? Web site MyBoneYard recycles your electronics and, if you're lucky, will offer you a reward too.
Recycling your item through MyBoneYard is free via a printable shipping label. Depending on the model and condition of your item, you could get an additional little reward for recycling. Start the process by clicking on the "What Can I Recycle?" option. Choose your item, enter its information—brand, model, condition—and you'll find out what your reward for recycling is—whether it's money or just the knowledge that you're helping the environment. Fill out your personal information, print out your label, and ship off the package. Keeping tabs on it—and your reward—can be done via the status screen.
The whole "reward" concept here is a little sketchy, since it seems obvious that they're offering the reward because they plan on reselling the item—so it's probably more accurate to say that the site buys or recycles your old or unused electronics. Still, it's nice to have a one-stop shop for doing both, especially if you just want to unload something rather than spending time trying to sell it. MyBoneYard is currently US only.
