Free Electronic Waste (E-Waste) Collection and Document-Shredding Event to be Held Nov. 21
Electronic Waste
The City of Benbrook encourages citizens to recycle electronic items whenever possible.
The City is hosting a FREE event for residents of Benbrook to recycle electronic and appliance items on Saturday, November 21, from 8:00AM until 12:00PM noon at Dutch Branch Park, rear parking lot behind Par 3 Golf. Follow the signs off Winscott to Beach Road (same location as Household Hazardous Waste event behind the Benbrook Community Center/YMCA, 1899 Winscott).
Innovative Electronics will be on-site to collect E-Waste. There will be attendants available to help unload items.
As a rule of thumb, if it can be plugged in, it can be recycled.
The following is a list of common items that citizens can bring for recycling:
• Televisions (any size)/Radios/Telephones
• Computers/monitors/printers (Innovative Electronics destroys the hard drive)
• Fax Machines/Copiers
• Microwave ovens/Dishwashers/Washers/Dryers/Refrigerators
• Gaming systems (Xbox, PlayStations, etc.)
