Oregon Area Chamber of Commerce issued the following announcement on Aug. 24.
The next Residential Electronics Recycling event will be held on Friday, August 28, 2020, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the County Annex Building at 909 Pines Road in Oregon. The parking lot will open at 9:00 a.m. for residential electronic recycling. OCSWMD staff requests that people do not arrive early.
To register for this event please call or email the OCSWMD by noon on August 26th (or the Wednesday before the event) to request a free Electronics Recycling Permit.
“All of these changes were necessary to insure the safety of our staff and workers at these events,” stated OCSWMD Director Steve Rypkema. “We had over 350 cars at each of our last two collection events and we just couldn’t keep up with that many cars and the volume of TVs and other electronics people are bringing in. People were lined up an hour before we began, so we struggled to catch up. We are hoping these changes will result in safer, more efficient events.” For more information please head to https://www.oglecounty.org/d…/solid_waste/news_&_events.
