If I want to dispose of old PCs/monitors around here, I have to either pay the disposal company to take them or try to BS my way into the for-residents-only program in the next county over.

There is also another one working to reduce the impact of e-waste to the environment thru computer recycling and they donate the recycled materials to charities, daycares, elderly homes etc.. They're Called ERA or Electronic Recycling Association: http://www.era.ca
