County to Host Free E-Waste Recycling Event, August 13

Event Gives Citizens A Unique Opportunity to Responsibly

Recycle Computers And Other Electronics.

Durham, NC – North Carolina laws are becoming increasingly stringent regarding what is allowed in landfills across the state. As of July 1, televisions and computer equipment are banned from disposal in North Carolina’s landfills, as a result of a law passed last year by the General Assembly.

In response to the recent disposal ban, the Durham County General Services Department has scheduled an E-Waste Recycling Event for Durham County residents and businesses to safely dispose of electronics and confidential documents.

The event, co-sponsored with Creative Recycling Systems, Inc., will be held from 8 a.m. until 12 p.m., on Saturday, August 13, 2011, at the Durham County Memorial Stadium located at 402 Stadium Drive, Durham.

Almost all electronic devices with a cord are accepted, including:

Computers, laptops, keyboards, mouse, printers, monitors, speakers, copiers, scanners, circuit boards, hard drives, computer parts, etc.
Televisions, stereo equipment, tape players, receivers, amplifiers, and record players
Kitchen electronics, such as microwaves, mixers, blenders, choppers, etc.
Telephones, cell phones, and fax machines
Hair dryers, curling irons, alarm clocks, and vacuum cleaners
Power tools, cordless tools, etc.
Electronic toys, such as keyboards and video game systems


Residents are discouraged from bringing large appliances, refrigerators, air conditioners, or any other appliances that contain Freon to the E-Waste Recycling Event.

SUMMER VANDALISM

There have been several reports of minor vandalism in the neighborhood recently. Last week, a neighbor on Mystic had their mailbox bashed right off the post. They filed a police report. Today it was reported that the vehicles at 4 houses along Mystic were egged. The HOA will be contacting Durham PD to request additional police presence in the neighborhood. However, it is summer and kids are bored and apparently up to no good. If you see any unfamiliar people in the neighborhood, please don’t hesitate to question their presence! If you think there is suspicious activity call 911!
