Re: [Frameworks] need to recycle tape stock
UPDATE for anyone with like questions. SF Greencitizen will take all formats of cassette tapes (video or audio). Video tapes are .25 to drop off. Or you can dismantle them yourself, throw out the videotape inside, and put the leftover hard plastic cases in the recycling. So it depends on how many hundreds of tapes you have and how much time you have to decant them. 25 cents each isn't bad, if you think about it. ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks

some electronic surplus stores deal with tv/video stuff... http://www.edn.com/electronics-blogs/the-emc-blog/4412972/Review--Bay-Area-surplus-stores 2014-09-11 16:37 GMT-04:00 Valerie Soe v...@sfsu.edu: I've got a ton of various formats of videotape that I'm trying to recycle and am looking for any hints about how to dispose of them in an ecologically sound manner, i.e., not send to landfill. Most of it is b-roll, window dubs, or raw footage so my local thrift store is not interested. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Re: [Frameworks] need to recycle tape stock
Hi Valerie, GreenCitizen accepts Tape based media (VHS/cassettes, floppy disks) at their 2nd and Howard location in San Francisco (http://www.greencitizen.com/electronics-recycling-san-francisco/). I've taken a number of old computers and peripherals there in recent years with the hope that they're able to find ethical and productive use for the equipment or raw materials.
