They are creating a drive thru for recycling, where you stop off at different places to drop off your different old, unusable items.
There is a complete list on the Sustainable Saratoga site and below are some highlights.
Monitor and TV Recycling
Monitors and TVs cost money to recycle. Yes, there are companies who will take them, take them apart and recycle whatever parts and pieces they can. But that all costs money.
What does that mean for us?
It will cost us all $20 each for monitor and TV recycling. As a non-profit, it wouldn’t be fair to have them pick up the cost for recycling TVs. If you don’t want to spend $20 per TV to recycle it, it’s ok. We have a few places that already recycle e-waste for free.
E-Waste Recycling / Electronics Recycling
This recycling day IS a great place to drop off all of your other electronics and this is FREE! Computers, DVD players, Game Systems, phones… They will also take kitchen appliances like coffee makers, toasters, and microwaves. And BIG things like washers and dryers.
I can’t wait to go and see all the cool stuff people with be bring to recycle!
