In my role as Chairperson for the Dutchess Chamber’s Green Committee I am excited to share the details about an electronic recycling event Friday, June 1st and Saturday, June 2nd.
The event is free and open to the public. Friday is for businesses and they must contact Bob Travers at btravers@advancedrecovery.com to pre-register. There is a suggested donation of $20 which benefits the Chamber’s Educational Foundation. Saturday is for residential customers and has a suggested donation of $5 per carload.
We will be recycling unwanted monitors, printers, keyboards, VCR’s, batteries, cell phones, terminals, cables, fax machines, radios, modems, CRT’s, telephones, TV’s, CPU’s, copiers, typewriters and stereo equipment. Air conditioners will require an additional fee.
We collected over 26 tons of recyclables and raised nearly $2000 for the Foundation last fall and are looking forward to an even busier event this June. The event is hosted in the Dutchess Mall in Fishkill–easily accessible from I84.
Please help us spread the word as broadly as possible.
Thanks again to the support of our sponsor Central Hudson and our host Dagar Group, as well as the hard work of our volunteers on the Green Life Committee.
