Indie Cycle then transports CRT materials to one of the following: Good Point Recycling for proper disposal or re-manufacturing, Goodwill Industries (non-CRT materials) to be refurbished or demanufactured in their Providence facility, or local artists who utilize electronics and metals in their artwork. Indie Cycle guarantees that all items will be refurbished, reused, demanufactured or recycled legally, ethically and responsibly, but cannot guarantee specific items will have specific outcomes. In other words, your bad computer might be fixed (without your data!), your perfectly good television might be recycled, or your old odd antique or vintage device may become a piece of artwork. The most important thing is that your electronics will be diverted from the landfill and you don't have to do anything but contact Indie Cycle and maybe pitch in for gas.
