Anything that has/had a plug or a battery will be recycled!  Most everything will be accepted for free, except the following: televisions $15 fee; computer monitors $10 fee; large appliances $5 fee. The fees will be used to offset recycling fees for CRT tubes going to lead refineries; the Sierra Club does NOT make any money off of the items.

No Freon-containing white goods or household hazardous wastes will be accepted.

All E-Waste Collections this year will use TOTALL Metal Recycling as the processor.
