The company will recycle all the old computers it receives domestically without shipping hazardous materials overseas. The recycling program extends the Cupertino, Calif., computer maker’s existing U.S. recycling program.

Apple also operates a free computer and household electronics dropoff location at its Cupertino headquarters. The company has recycled more than 90 percent of the electronics its collected since 2001, said Philip Schiller, Apple´s senior vice president of worldwide product marketing.
