Essex County will hold a computer and electronics recycling day on Saturday, May 15, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Essex County Public Works garage on West Bradford Avenue in Cedar Grove.

“Recycling computer hardware and electronic devices helps remove lead and other dangerous chemicals from our waste stream, which is important for us and our children. With your participation, we can do our part to protect the environment,” said Essex County Executive Joseph N. DiVincenzo Jr.

Items being accepted at the recycling event are computers, monitors, printers, fax machines, scanners, telecom equipment, speakers, televisions, keyboards, main frames, VCRs, stereos, DVD players, toasters, irons and cellular telephones. Not being accepted are smoke detectors and carbon monoxide alarms.

The Essex County Computer and Electronics Recycling Day is for Essex County residents only. Residents are not charged when they bring materials, but they must provide proof of residency at the site.
