This Weekend - FREE SLC Electronic Waste ("E-Waste") Collection Program
GRX will be holding a FREE collection for electronic waste (from old electric can-openers and toaster ovens to TVs, printers, computers, keyboards, etc.) for residents of Salt Lake City this Saturday, January 10 - from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. The location is the parking lot behind Horizonte School (1300 South and West Temple. You must be a resident of Salt Lake City to participate (and they will be checking), as GRX normally charges 25 cents/lb. for electronic waste.
GRX also takes old cables, power cords, cell phones, CDs, DVDs, VHS tapes, cassette tapes, you name it. And the "guarantee" in their name; none of the materials will leave the United States (won't be landfilled in Asia or delivered to 12 year olds in China to disassemble under hazardous conditions).
Pass this on to anyone you know in Salt Lake City who might enjoy taking advantage of this opportunity.
