	NEXTSTEP RECYCLING NextStep Recycling has grown from its initial beginnings as a Macintosh computer fix-it-and-pass-it-on resource into a thriving community service organization. Founded in 2002 as Computer Reuse and Recycling Center, a 501(c)(3) public nonprofit corporation, it is now known as NextStep Recycling to reflect its more expansive mission and materials accepted for reuse and recycling. NextStep accepts for donation: obsolete electronics, including desktop computers, laptops, handheld games, cell phones, etc; household electronics (clocks, radios, lamps, etc); white (microwaves, stoves, dryers, etc.) and brown (stereos, VCRs, DVD players, etc.) goods. The packing and shipping materials associated with these items are also accepted. Phone: 541-686-2366 Web site: http://www.nextsteprecycling.org/
