Durham Shred-A-Thon and Electronics Recycling/Disposal
Sunday, May 1, 2011
I promised I would tell you about these events and look what I found in my inbox this morning! As it turns out, we are having our very own Shred-A-Thon here in Durham this coming Sunday. This event also includes electronics (basically anything with a cord).
Date: Sunday, May 1, from
Time: 12:00 – 5:00 PM
Where: Durham Central Park, located at 502 Foster St. (downtown Durham)
What:
Electronics: Old computers, printers, monitors, televisions, cell phones, and nearly anything else with a cord is accepted for recycling. Exceptions – no large appliances (no washers or bigger items) or items with Freon (no air conditioning units).
Free paper shredding: Provided on site. Paper may contain paper clips and staples; however, hanging file folders will not be accepted. Residents may be present to witness the shredding of their confidential documents.
Hosted by the City of Durham’s Solid Waste Management Department
