Cleaning Out and Up

You probably have a VCR you no longer use stashed somewhere. Or a computer that bit the dust lying in a corner. If so, you have a great opportunity to get those unwanted electronic products out of the basement, attic and garage, thanks to an "e-cycling" event that will be held Saturday, May 19.

In the Sugarman's Plaza parking lot, on the Scranton-Carbondale Highway in Eynon, households and businesses with fewer than 50 employees will be able to drop off electronics free-of-charge. It doesn't matter where you live and you will not have to show proof or residency to drop off items. The event runs from 9 a.m. to noon or until the 45-foot trailer is filled with used televisions, computer equipment, including monitors, laptops, CPUs, printers, scanners, speakers, battery backups and cables, cell phones, VCRs, radios and stereo equipment and most other devices that plug in or operated on batteries.
