Our Company History

Our company started in the appliance business in 1998. We specialized in the sales and service of new and reconditioned appliances and televisions. Watching the changes in technology over the years and seeing the difficulty people were having in the disposal of old televisions, we knew something needed to be done. At the time we had no solution.

In 2002, chance would have it that we would receive a call from our county solid waste district. They wanted to know if we would be interested in collecting e-waste.

In 2003, with the help of the solid waste district and the response to a growing need for disposal of e-waste, MRC began recycling electronics.

Initially, MRC only collected from individuals and schools, at our store front. Within a few short months, we began hosting community recycling events. These events are typically sponsored and/or promoted by schools, businesses or government entities. In our first year, we hosted 4 events. In 2010, we are expecting to host over 40 events!

Sponsors that we have partnered with include:

• Wal-Mart
• Rueters-Thompson Press
