The U.S. Postal Service launched a pilot program Monday that encourages customers to mail outmoded electronics and used inkjet cartridges to a recycling center in California.

Customers can pick up free envelopes for the Mail Back program at post offices nationwide, including about 300 in the Chicago area, to mail small electronics — including digital cameras, MP3 players and BlackBerries — to the U.S. Postal Service.

The envelopes are pre-labeled to go to the recycling center, which is run by Clover Technologies Group.
