The large amounts of toxic materials contained within a monitor's cathode ray tube or CRT present a very serious problem for those seeking an environmentally conscious alternative to landfill disposal.

Lead and phosphorous are just a few of the many toxic elements found within a CRT. Lead is the most prevalent toxic material and many CRTs have been shown to leach this lead content into landfills.

Currently, we handle the end-of-life of CRT's by first attempting to repair or resell the complete unit on the secondary market throughout the world.

CRT Recycling Inc. is the largest class A recycler of cathode ray tubes and electronics in Massachusetts. Our main goal is to reduce the amount of waste going into our landfills by recycling and/or reselling marketable items. This process allows us to offer you a very low cost on your disposal service.

Generally, we are able to recycle approximately 98.5% of the material that we accept. Material received daily ranges anywhere from a few thousand pounds to as much as 175 tons in one day. Although CRT’s and CRT related materials are the primary materials recycled, we also have federally certified technicians to recycle freon related products such as refrigerators, air conditioners.

Our Class A recycling permits us to accept these items for recycling and/or disposal. We remove the cathode ray tube (CRT) and send glass off for glass-to-glass recycling. Metals and plastics are also separated and sent off for proper recycling.

We take in all CPU’s, printers, scanners, mice and misc. electronic scrap for FREE*! (* There may be a charge for any electronic items that contain a CRT)

Some of these items can be refurbished and/or resold. This helps to reduce the cost of your CRT disposal and helps the environment at the same time!
We currently service over 100 municipalities across Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut by placing CRT housing containers at their transfer station or landfills. These containers are emptied by CRT Recycling Inc. on a “call when needed” basis and pricing is negotiable. We also offer municipalities monthly collection days and house-to-house curbside collection pick-ups that are not only inexpensive, but COULD BENEFIT YOU FINANCIALLY. We offer discounted rates for schools. Clean out the clutter in your building at a VERY LOW COST! We can also provide a certificate of materials recycled as proof of proper disposal.

To get to the glass, monitors and televisions must be completely disassembled. The individual components listing includes plastic, printed circuit boards, copper wiring, power and flyback components and of course, the CRT tube itself.

All businesses have occasion to discard confidential data. Customer’s lists, price lists, sales statistics, drafts of bids and correspondence, and even memos, contain information about business activity which would interest any competitor. Every business is also entrusted with information that must be kept private. Employees and customers have the legal right to have this data protected.
Without the proper safeguards, information ends up in the dumpster where it is readily, and legally, available to anybody. The trash is considered by business espionage professionals as the single most available source of competitive and private information from the average business. Any establishment that discards private and proprietary data without the benefit of destruction, exposes itself to the risk ofcriminal and civil prosecution, as well as the costly loss of business.
