Home MenueCycling Electronics Recycling
Electronics recycling will be held on the fourth Wed. of each month, 7 a.m. to 11 a.m. (No December 2024 event.) Please stay in your vehicle. Materials should be hauled in on the back of trailers or pickup trucks whenever possible. Face coverings are recommended.
Electronics are accepted for recycling at the Landfill citizens' center.
Electronics such as computer monitors, lap tops, cell phones, adapters, dry cell batteries, processors, keyboards, mice, cables, televisions, VCRs, fax machines, copiers, scanners, calculators, electric typewriters, telephones, answering machines, tape recorders, camcorders, cameras, stereos and speakers are all accepted during special collection events.
All working microwave ovens should be donated to a local charity.
Monitors and television screens are not landfilled. All materials are trucked out of the area and dismantled for recycling. End-user fees help offset the landfill's costs associated with the safe management of lead and mercury-containing screens.
Businesses and residents are encouraged to participate in eCycle! All forms of payment accepted. Company checks and personal checks should be made payable to Treasurer, Frederick County.
