Electronics
Electronics should never go in the garbage or recycling bins. Bring your old or broken devices to the electronic storage container at the Transfer Station, where they’ll be safely handled and recycled.
Many electronics contain valuable materials like copper, silver, and plastic that can be recovered and reused.
If your device still works, consider donating it through a recognized reuse organization to give it a second life.
For questions about electronics, ask the attendant.
