Liberty Tax Service and Indie Cycle Host Free Electronics Recycling Event

Recycling old and used electronics is one of the best ways to help protect the environment. That’s why the Liberty Tax at 2775 Pawtucket Avenue in East Providence will host its seventh "Electronics Recycling Drop-Off Event" on Saturday, March 24, 2018, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., with Indie Cycle, LLC.

“Everyone is looking for ways to help protect the environment,” said Paul Pliakas, owner of the Liberty Tax Service in East Providence. “Our first Electronics Recycling Event was held in January 2015, and now we do it several times a year. We think it is important to provide our neighbors a convenient drop-off location, so they can safely dispose of their old electronics products.”

Indie Cycle accepts many types of unwanted electronics for recycling FREE of charge. Those items include “anything with a wire,” such as computers, laptops, routers, mice, monitors, keyboards, tablets, PDAs, toner cartridges, TVs, CD/DVD players, cabling, wires, microwaves, and small household appliances. Indie Cycle also accepts cell, cordless, and land-line phones, stereo equipment, speakers, and other electronic gadgetry, auto/marine batteries and battery backups (but none with alkaline).

A $10 disposal fee applies for each: Large printer (laserjet or copier), air conditioner, dehumidifier, and appliances containing coolants.
