What happens to my T.V. or computer once I drop it off at the Transfer Station? I’ve heard that many towns send these items overseas where environmental concerns are not addressed.

The Buxton Transfer Station ships all televisions, computers, and computer screens to Uniwaste Services in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.  Uniwaste disassembles these items on site to recover any recyclable materials and properly disposes of any waste.  Sending these items overseas is a bad option because they typically use child labor and allow these items to pollute the environment.
