Recycling

Williams recycles a variety of materials, each of which takes a different path to becoming a new product.

Computers, Monitors, Televisions, and other Electronics
1. Computers, monitors, printers, and televisions are brought by custodians to the Agway center near the base of Spring Street.

2. They are stored until they are picked up by CRT Recycling out of Brockton, Massachusetts. Any usable items are sold or donated, while non-usable items are broken down in to their component materials (plastic, glass, metal, etc.) and recycled.

Williams recycles approximately 5-7 tons of mixed electronics per year.
