The County has scheduled paper shredding, tire collection and household hazardous waste collection events throughout the County for 2016. Click here to see the schedule.

Because electronics manufacturers are not sponsoring collection events in Southeast Pennsylvania, the County is unable to offer any electronics recycling for this year. An amendment to the state electronics recycling law, called the Covered Device Recycling Act, is needed to ensure the availability of recycling outlets.

In the meantime, please make sure to pay for proper disposal of items like television sets and computer monitors. If they are still in working condition, a nonprofit like the Salvation Army or Team Children might take them.

For an overview of the Covered Device Recycling Act please see:
