The City is hosting a FREE event for residents of Benbrook recycle electronic and appliance items and to shred documents on May 20, from 8:00 AM until 12:00 PM at Dutch Branch Park, rear parking lot behind Par 3 Golf.
Follow the signs off Winscott Road to Beach Road (same location as Household Hazardous Waste event behind the Benbrook Community Center/YMCA, 1899 Winscott Road). 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/Refrigerators
- Washers/Dryers
- Gaming Systems (X-Box, Playstations, etc.)
- Vacuums
Please limit shredding to a reasonable household amount. No large quantities of business documents. Please do not place plastic materials such as credit cards or compact discs with materials to be shredded.
Shredding will take place from 8:00 AM until 12:00 PM or until the shredding truck is full.
