This is one of those "doing our part to help the rest of the world go green" stories and announcements.

The USPS announced this week that they would be offering Free shipping of old small electronics such as mp3 players, ipods, cellphones, and ink cartidges for those wishing to recycle those products by sending them to Clover, a no-landfill company doing everything in it's power to recycle old electronics without adding waste to landfills.

"The “Mail Back” program helps consumers make more environmentally friendly choices, making it easier for customers to discard used or obsolete small electronics in an environmentally responsible way. Customers use free envelopes found in 1,500 Post Offices to mail back inkjet cartridges, PDAs, Blackberries, digital cameras, iPods and MP3 players – without having to pay for postage."

So if you're like me and have drawers full of old toys that are no longer worth a penny on ebay, maybe this will help with your spring cleaning and help you to feel like you've made the world a little greener and a landfill a little less full.
