Residents and businesses in north Fulton County can get rid of those old computers collecting dust in the corner.
On Oct. 14, from 9 a.m. to noon, the Alpharetta Department of Public Safety will be accepting computers and other electronics for recycling. Collection will take place in the parking lot on 2565 Old Milton Pkwy.
Alpharetta has teamed up with Atlanta Recycling Solutions on the effort. The event is designed to give residents and businesses the opportunity to properly recycle and dispose electronic waste.
Atlanta Recycling Solutions recycles everything it accepts and materials are never sent to be processed in developing nations, a flyer for the event says.
These items will be accepted at no charge: computers, DVD players, VCRs, mobile phones, computer parts, telephones, iPads, toner cartridges, cables and wires, calculators, printers, small electronics, laptops and batteries.
