Decluttering after the holidays? Here’s your chance to clean out your home or office, recycle responsibly, protect your private information and support a great cause, all in one simple act! The Ridgefield Library will hold its annual Tech Recycling Day on Saturday, January 18th from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm in the Dayton Program Room on the Library’s Lower Level.
Bring your old phones, tablets, laptops, hard drives, PCs, Macs, printers, TVs, DVD players and other technology to the Lower Level of the Library. Computer parts will be destroyed and then safely recycled. Other home electronics and small appliances will also be accepted for recycling, except for large kitchen appliances and any device containing mercury, freon or hazardous liquids.
Secure e-waste recycling and final disposal will be provided by Take 2 Inc of Waterbury, the Housatonic Resources Recovery Authority’s certified electronics recycling provider. Suggested donation is $20 per item, with proceeds supporting the Library’s technology initiatives. (E-waste recycling is also available at no charge at the Ridgefield Recycling Center.) Go to the Library’s Events Calendar at ridgefieldlibrary.org for more information.
