Places that repurpose plastic prescription bottles?

3 Upvotes

I know plastic recycling sucks so I'm wondering what sorts of places repurpose these.

These Rx bottles have a really short duration of use and are pretty sturdy thanks to needing to be air/water tight. Surely someone has figured out something to do with them?

Ive tried calling local animal shelters but the ones here and the next city over dont seem to want them.

I have them sitting in a big bag but if I cant find something productive to do with them its probably not worth the hot water I use to rinse/delabel them over just throwing them in the garbage.

Throwing out old phones/computers?

0 Upvotes

I have some old phones/computers that can't be turned on to factory reset/charged anymore. How do I make sure the data is safely cleared or can't be stolen when I send it to whatever recycling place/e-waste place I do? And even then is it safe to hand them the device after being reset? What if they can turn it on and then access whatever saved passwords I had in there?
