Spring cleaning to celebrate Mother Earth: PCC Sylvania hosts first-ever ‘E-Cycling’ drive

Spring cleaning just got easier, thanks to PCC Sylvania’s “E-Cycling” drive with Bear eCycling and GreenWall Industries, to make recycling old electronics equipment fun, convenient and cost-efficient!Mark the calendar for Saturday, May 17, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. The event will be held at the Sylvania campus, 12000 SW 49th Ave., in the P10 parking lot (follow signs and volunteer flaggers).
The first 500 computer monitors and television sets will be accepted free of charge, with a limit of two monitors or TVs per customer – a bargain compared to other “E-Cycling” events that charge up to $10 per computer monitor or TV. Additional monitors or TVs over the two-per-customer limit are $5 each. Television sets larger than 35” count as two units.
Once the 500-mark has been met, the cost will be $5 per monitor or TV. Television sets larger than 35” will be counted as two units, with a charge of $10.
Car loads of small appliances, excluding monitors or TVs, will be accepted free of charge throughout the day.
Items not accepted at the PCC Sylvania “E-Cycling” drive are microwave ovens, batteries, fluorescent light bulbs, automobile tires, air conditioners and large appliances.
