Recycling specialists are in all-out efforts to revamp the poorly funded electronics recycling program. The local governments and manufacturers are very close to reaching a consensus. Will County, Illinois is planning to open two electronics recycling drop-off locations. On the other hand, Monmouth has reportedly shut down the electronics recycling services at the Warren Achievement Center.

The Illinois Manufacturers Association has come up with a sticker concept, whereby service users would be required to purchase a sticker ranging from $5 to $10 at a local grocery store or government office building to recycling screened electronic items such as televisions and tablets. The amount thus collected will go into a fund that will be utilized to meet program costs. The County is also keen to increase the number of established drop-off sites to at least 8.
