| |
| − | | |
| − | In 2008, Free Geek recycled 597 tons of material. We could not have done this without our material handlers who pay us to separate the stuff and actually do the recycling. In order to keep Free Geek from being crushed under the weight of our bad or obsolete donations, a fair amount of phone calls, e-mails, and fork-lifting is required...

| − | * SHIPPING: Boxes have been historically automatically delivered to us. If we run low we may need to contact the vendor to trigger replacements. Boxes include prepaid UPS labels and can be handed to a delivery driver or UPS store for no charge. For about $7 we can schedule a same-day UPS pickup. In 2014 John has been occasionally scheduling UPS pickups for Amazon sales and giving battery boxes to the driver at the same time.

| − | *[obsolete: changes to help with battery flow: We can now use double walled boxes, and fill them with batteries that have their terminals taped by electrical tape. They will be stored on a pallet, and when the pallet reaches at least 1000lb we call Sean for a pick up. RBRC uses Yellow Freight for pick ups. No payment needed if we set up shipment with Sean.]
