If you have electronics to recycle, registration for the area's big recycling event is now open (registration and more information at the website here). From the News-Gazette website last night:
Registration now open for Oct. 13 electronics recycling eventA few additional details at the full blurb here. There is a lot of additional information, including a Guide for Residents, at the registration website here. It includes area recycling options for items not part of this event and year round recycling options if you can't make it to this one.
Registration has opened for this fall's electronics recycling event.
Residents from participating communities can register for 15-minute slots between 8 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. Oct. 13 at ecycle.simplybook.me.
A little over half the slots are full, said Nichole Millage, environmental-sustainability specialist for the city of Champaign.
At the event at Parkland College, residents can drop off up to two TVs and up to 10 items total per person.
Millage said residents should check the registration website for details on what items are allowed to be dropped off.
For example, computers, cellphones and microwaves are allowed, but batteries, dehumidifiers, smoke detectors and vacuums are not.
The event is open to residents in Bondville, Broadlands, Champaign, Fisher, Gifford, Homer, Ivesdale, Ludlow, Mahomet, Odgen, Pesotum, Rantoul, Royal, Sadorus, Savoy, Sidney, Thomasboro, Urbana, and unincorporated Champaign County.
