    If dust is collecting on your old computer, a local charity will be glad to take it off your hands.

    Wausau's Good News Project will be recycling any old electronics you want to give them.

    For 25 cents a pound, workers from Good News and the Volunteer Center of Marathon County will unload and weigh your old electronics.

    They say they've already seen all sorts of different items.

    "They want to do the right thing," says General Manager Christine Daniels of the Good News Project. "We'll get people coming in with a little five pounds; they know they shouldn't go in a landfill."

    You can take your electronics to the Good News Warehouse from 9AM until noon Saturday.

    The electronics will be shipped to an end recycler in Madison, who will break them down and make sure all the data is destroyed properly.
