MRM adds new Texas sites to its infrastructure
MRM, a provider of electronics waste
recycling management services to
manufacturers, announced an agreement
with Goodwill Industries of Central
Texas that expands MRM’s recycling
infrastructure in Texas.
Under the program, end-of-life televisions
from Panasonic, Sharp or Toshiba
dropped off at any one of Goodwill’s
35 locations across 15 counties in
central Texas will be responsibly
recycled.
Products collected through Goodwill
of Central Texas will be recycled
by Eco-International in Houston,
Texas.
MRM is open to support the recycling
programs of all electronics manufacturers,
and it already serves 25 manufacturers
in various recycling programs. MRM
also works on recycling with retailers,
non-profits, governments and private
waste management companies.
The program with Goodwill will be
initially underwritten by Panasonic
Corporation of North America, Sharp
Electronics Corporation, and Toshiba
America Consumer Products, LLC,
and will cover Panasonic, Sharp
and Toshiba branded TVs. The program
is open to any electronics manufacturer
seeking to provide their consumers
with expanded recycling opportunities
in Texas.
