Habitat for Humanity wants the old electronic devices you've replaced this year.
It's holding two electronic waste and small appliance recycling events Saturday from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m.
The events take place at both Home Depots in the city, one in South Windsor on Division Road and the other on Tecumseh Road East.
“Unwanted electronics and appliances should never end up in landfills. Most of the steel, glass, copper, aluminum, plastics and precious metals in electronic products can be removed and made into new products. Many computers, printers and televisions can be reused, further cutting down on waste. Funds raised through recycling and appliance reclamation make home building possible.”
Any old electronic or small appliance can be brought to the recycling event including computers and peripherals, laptops, monitors, keyboards, copiers, VCRs, DVD players, printer/fax machines, phones, cell phones, pagers, radios, televisions, microwaves, toasters, can openers and toaster/convection ovens.
