There’s been a change in location for next month’s electronics recycling trailer, in Atlantic. Atlantic Community Protection committee Chairman Chris Jimerson reports a semi-trailer for the loading of electronics to be disposed of will be located at the Cass County Fairgrounds, instead of on North Chestnut Street, as had been previously announced. The 4-H Fairgrounds committee has authorized the use of the grounds for the dropping off of electronic items. The event will be held May 9th, from 7-until 11-a.m.eRecycle_logo_small

The electronic recycling program is for Cass County residents only. Businesses are not allowed to participate. You may bring the following items ONLY, to the fairgrounds for placement in the trailer: televisions, computer monitors, hard drives, printers, lap-tops, VCR/DVD players, keyboards, speakers, circuit boards, cell phones, cables, electronic scrap, small appliances, and microwaves.

Once the semi is full, no further electronic items will be taken, and anyone with items left over, will be asked to take those items to the Cass County Landfill, which has had its own E-recycling program in place, since 2006. For information about what electronic pieces are accepted at the Landfill, and the price of disposal, go to www.casscountylandfill.com, or call 712-243-1991.
