Electronics recycling returns Saturday March 24th, in Village of Carrier Mills. The event is held on the
Carrier Mills Municipal Building Parking lot, located at 101 North Mill Street, from 9 a.m. until Noon.
No longer can you throw electronics away and they be taken to a landfill. Anything that can be
plugged in is required to be recycled. So on Saturday a recycler will be present and will collect
anything that you can plug in and no longer works or you don’t want. Most of the items are free to
dispose of, but not everything is free! For a very small cost you have a local location to dispose of
electronics properly.
Console TV’s and big screen TV’s are $10. Small screen TV’s, computer monitors and small flat screens
all cost $5 to be recycled.
Due to recycling costs, the following items are no longer accepted for free: Vacuums, microwaves,
printers and copiers now cost a $1 to be recycled.
In addition, the recycler will also except used motor oil and batteries of all sizes, for free.

event is 9 a.m. until Noon.
