Electronics Recycling Event: Rock Creek Campus

Posted by

The Rock Creek ASPCC Sustainability Team would like to invite you to participate in a free electronic recycling event.  The event will enable you to recycle your electronics for free! For every item you recycle at this event, you will also receive a free piece of yummy chocolate!

LOVE YOUR EARTH 1

  • Dates: February 10-14th only
  • Hours: 10 am to 4 pm
  • Where: BLDG 3 Student Center room 128

What examples of electronics includes: computers, phones, hand-held devices and others. Questions? Contact Mandy Ellertson.

Our goal for this event is to reduce electronics from filling landfills. In the United States alone, 120 million cell phones are thrown away each year.  One million cell phones recycled equals 350 trillion gallons of water saved from pollution and 100 thousand people helped.

 Sorry, no refrigerators, compact fluorescent light bulbs or Alkaline batteries accepted. If you have alkaline batteries that need to be recycled, PCC can accommodate you! Contact Erin Stanforth for more information.
