Free E-Waste Collection Event
Free Electronic Waste (E-Waste) Collection Event
Help our City get rid of E-Waste the right way by sending it to a proper recycling process and not into the landfills!
- Electronic discard is one of the fastest growing segments of this nations waste stream.
- 56% of American households have functional e-products that they no longer use.
- 70% of heavy metals, 40% of lead and mercury contents found in today's landfills come from E-Waste.
- New federal mandate requires that television stations switch from analog format to digital format, which means a greater number of televisions, will become obsolete within the next several years.
E-Waste is any consumer electronic equipment that has reached its 'end-of-life' or 'end-of-usage', whether in full or non-working condition. It includes most electronics or electrical appliances with a cord or circuit board such as:
Computer Monitors, TV Sets, PC Systems, Printers, Laptops, Copiers, Scanners, Fax Machines, Toner Cartridges, Power Supplies, VCR/VCD/DVD Players, Home Entertainment Systems, Landline and Cellular Phones, and small portable devices.
We accept car and forklift batteries. There is a $5 service fee for Microwave Ovens. We do not accept: Refrigerators, Washer & Dryers, Fluorescent Light Bulbs, and Household Batteries.
