Whether you’re looking for a place to drop off your old computer, a place to buy salvaged Victorian-era doors or a business that repairs watches, the Use It Again, PA! website has you covered.

The Use It Again PA! website features a statewide database of businesses that rent, repair or sell used products. Reuse is good for the environment and great for consumers looking to stretch their dollars. Reusing a product keeps it out of the waste stream and reduces the demand for resources required to make new products. And, used goods are usually a lot less expensive than new ones!

The website was recently expanded to move beyond its Philadelphia origins.

The site now allows searchers to specify 13 geographical areas and 30 product types. Also new on the site are dedicated sections for electronics reuse and recycling and for architectural salvage. The new sections contain loads of fun and educational information about the how’s and why’s of reusing these products.

The Use It Again, PA! website is also packed full of recycling information, from community specifics to general tips.

The website was created by the Clean Air Council in collaboration with the Department of Environmental Protection.
