about us

Located in beautiful Oak Park, IL, Every Last Byte was founded by a mom who believes computer support should be inexpensive and pain-free. With tons of experience in business and residential computer support, our friendly technicians are here to help.
 

We are committed to your satisfaction. We offer advice, training, and detailed information with every service call. 

we recycle!

Gather up your old batteries and computer junk and give us a call. We'll pick them up free of charge. You don't have to be one of our customers; you just have to live in the Oak Park, River Forest, IL area.

If you live outside this area, there are some really good places to donate your computer debris. One great option is to visit TechSoup.com. They do more than recycle, they also refurbish and sell computer equipment to non-profit organizations at extreme discounts. 

Check out the EPA.gov website too. They have surprisingly well-organized information about recycling electronics with links to local recycling agencies that can help. You can find them here.

 

food for thought...

  • The average CRT monitor can contain as much as 5 pounds of lead. (That's not a typo: pounds).
  • PCs can contain as much as 8 pounds of lead.
  • Circuit boards contain arsenic, mercury, and cadmium as well as other nasties.
  • Be careful when choosing a recycling agency.  Sadly, not all centers are legitimate recyclers.  More info here.
