If you wish to explore your compressor pressure switch, and I do recommend that you make yourself familiar with what is inside, make sure first that the compressor power supply is unplugged then go ahead, remove the cover. You want to be sure the power is off as there are live power connections inside the lid.
Discs are sometimes collected at some local recycling centres. To find out where your nearest recycling facilities are, use our handy Recycling Locator tool. Check local CD/DVD recycling. VHS tapes and cassettes are now rarely accepted at recycling centres and are generally sent to landfill. A company called Tip Top Media currently accepts old tapes for disposal but there may be a charge for this so please contact them for more information.
Convert your VHS tapes into something new and exciting. The Web is packed with unique ideas for turning old tapes into furniture, accessories, clothing and art. It takes a bit of the do-it-yourself spirit, but there are plenty of options available to creative craftspeople.reenDisk and ACT (links in Resources) are two organizations that accept VHS tapes for recycling, separating the waste components from the reclaimable ones. Donate your VHS tapes to local thrift stores.
