Looking for a company to recycle plastic reel and I.C. tubes. I already recycle trays with Smart Cycle (formally Semicyle). I hate to throw that stuff away. The local recycling places only recycle plastic 1 and 2. Most of the reels are 3's.

Does anyone recycle SMT Matrix Trays? I found some old posts from many years ago, but those suppliers are not in business any longer. Curious if anyone recycles SMT reels or tubes either or if this all goes into the recycle dumpsters / landfills?

That would take care of WEEEEEEEEE. But wouldn't cover ROHS which is to protect the recycling workers.

I've read that lead is the most recycled material in the world. It would be mainly batteries of course but still interesting.
