So THE BUZZ took our own advice and participated in the e-waste recycling fund raiser today at the Charter School.
It felt good to drop off the monitor, old DVD drives and a couple video cards knowing they would be disposed of correctly.
Everyone who made a drop off received an e-waste postcard designed by the school’s students to show their appreciation. Here’s the one we got.
If you happened to miss today’s event and you, like a lot of people, have some old computers, monitors, TVs, etc. you want to get rid of the RIGHT way, THE BUZZ tracked down some information on how to do so in Sactown.
This information comes from the County of Sacramento Waste Management & Recycling website.
Looks like there are a number of local electronic waste recycling companies that accept this material from the public, businesses, school districts and government agencies.
