Greetings,
My name is Cary McQuaid and I represent Metal Conversion Technologies. I would like to first thank you for this opportunity to quickly write to you about our company.

We here at Metal Conversion Technologies are very excited about the opportunity to provide a much needed service that offers both convenience and profitability with regards to battery recycling.

We recently were awarded contracts with several counties and municipalities in several states to recycle their rechargeable batteries (NI-CD, NI-MH, and LI-Ion). While working with these institutions on developing or expanding their recycling programs we realized that all municipalities and private enterprises should have the opportunity to profit financially from recycling their rechargeable batteries. As a result MCT has decided to make available to anyone interested in recycling and protecting the environment this great opportunity. For your consideration we are sending you some information about our company and recycling programs. To order “The Big Blue Box” please call 678-721-0022 and start recycling today.

We are committed to customer satisfaction. Please call if you have any questions or need more information.

Thank you,

Cary McQuaid
