Scotts Valley, CA – The City of Scotts Valley is pleased to announce that on Saturday September 17, 2016, it will hold its 14th annual e-waste collection event. This event is free to the public.
Last year, the City collected over 20,000 pounds of electronics, mostly in the form of computers, monitors and television sets from almost 300 participants. These items are now banned from landfill disposal because of their hazardous material content of lead, mercury, and other heavy metals.
This program ensures that the items collected will be properly recycled and/or disposed by an E-Steward Certified Recycler (ECS Refining) so that they do not become a source of pollution to local rivers, streams, and groundwater supplies.
The event will held on Erba Lane, across from the Scotts Valley Fire District from 9 am – 1 pm.
