Donating Video Tapes and CDs
May 2006
I've searched the archives and contacted several of the
companies listed on stopwaste.org (many of whom didn't return my
calls), but I can't find anyone locally who recycles used video
tapes, CDs and other media. Any tips? There's nothing top secret
on them, and I'd be happy to drop them off. I've been mailing
them off to someplace in Washington State, but that gets a
little expensive. I hate to just throw them away - thanks for
any leads you can provide!

I've driven by a place called ACCESS on Gilman near Sixth St. which is
some sort of
video filming place for young people. Maybe they could use your tapes?
If you're
driving away from San Pablo towards the 580, it's on the right hand
side of Gilman
near Royal Robbins clothing store and the pet store

A couple of years ago I saw in the Albany Middle School
newsletter a blurb asking for used cassette and video tapes for
students to re-use. You might want to try some local schools to
see if they could use your stuff.

You can donate videotapes to Kaiser and kids who are
hospitalized can watch them. Childrens' Hospital may take them
also. They're a real godsend for kids who are bored, lonely,
possibly in pain, and stuck in bed. I'm not sure who the
contact person at Kaiser might be, but the children's wing is
in the hospital bldg on the 10th floor
