AnythingIT, SHI, and Verizon Partner to Hold Recycling Rally in Honor of World Environment Day
June 05 2013 - 8:00AM
In partnership with AnythingIT, Inc., (OTCBB:ANYI), a leading
information technology electronics recycler and e-waste handler
serving both government and commercial markets, SHI International
Corp., one of North America's top 20 largest IT solutions
providers, will co-host a Recycling Rally with Verizon
Communications (NYSE:VZ) (Nasdaq:VZ) in honor of World Environment
Day. The event will allow the community to recycle unwanted
electronics for free on June 6 from 7:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. at SHI's
headquarters at 290 Davidson Ave., Somerset, N.J. 08873. SHI will
offer water bottles to the first 100 recyclers and will also
distribute tote bags, pens, and other giveaways throughout the day.
This is Verizon's fourth year of sponsoring recycling events in
its effort to "Work Green. Live Green." SHI has also previously
sponsored an E-waste Earth Day event. Last year alone, SHI's
one-day recycling initiative kept approximately 5,000 pounds of
electronics out of local landfills.
All materials received at the event will be recycled in an
environmentally friendly manner by AnythingIT, an e-Stewards
Certificate Holder and NJDEP Class D Permit Holder based in Fair
Lawn, N.J. Every pound of material received will be sorted and
recycled with material of similar composition with downstream
accountability.
"SHI and Verizon are dedicated to our local community and the
environment," said Ed McNamara, Director of Communications and
Marketing at SHI International Corp. "As such, we're trying to make
it as easy as possible for employees and local residents to recycle
their unused electronics—SHI and Verizon employees will even be on
hand to help unload cars. We encourage residents to take advantage
of this opportunity by dropping off old computers, televisions,
cameras, stereos, and other electronics so they can be disposed of
in a way that respects our community and the planet."
