Sounds like a stupid idea, especially when you want to involve the local government into your scheme.

At best you could just become a pariah in your community, at worse you could be breaking a few laws and get fined/go to jail.

Is it against the law? I mean, all it is, is offering to recycle broken, outdated electronics. And you'd literally be doing just that. And it's not like you'd be lying in any way shape or form. 90% of e-waste recycling is far more shady, they literally take all of the junk and send it to a landfill overseas. Do you need a certification to remove waste from public schooling?

The point is you're not actually going to recycle them. you are going to refurbish what you can and sell it for money and the rest will go into the local dump.
Sounds like fraud to me

Put up an ad on craigslist, print a few flyers, spam them out near schools and libraries and rent a truck. Why are you going to call them up? I can see it now "uuuhhm hi do you have any computers i can have that you dont need anymore?"

Go offer your services on bulletin boards. Trendy cafes too, management types have lunch in those types of places.
