WESTMINSTER E-CYCLING PROGRAM CONTINUES
City residents can drop off old electronics for recycling

Westminster, MD – In June, the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) awarded grants to municipalities for the institution or initiation of local recycling programs for computer and video display devices under the Statewide Electronics Recycling Program.

The City of Westminster applied for and received a $25,000 grant from MDE to start an electronics recycling program in Westminster.

As a result, Westminster established a mobile electronics waste recycling center known as the Westminster Initiative to Recycle E-waste Drop-off Center (W.I.R.E.D. Center).

The W.I.R.E.D. center is used as a mobile electronics waste recycling center for residents to drop off electronics waste, which will allow the City to separate the collection of computers, video display devices, and other forms of electronic waste from the regular bulk trash thereby reducing the amount of trash entering the landfill.

The W.I.R.E.D. center will allow the City to properly recycle or dispose of electronic waste by encouraging residents to participate easily and conveniently.

The next drop-off date is November 7, 2009 and the location is 105 Railroad Avenue.

The following items will be accepted: televisions (NO WOOD), microwaves, projection equipment, computers, fax machines, stereos, copiers, monitors, wire & cable, DVD players, electronic toys, peripherals, VCRs, camcorders, telephones, electronic typewriters, CD players, cell phones, calculators, PDAs, scanners, and printers.
