HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE & <br />ELECTRONICS DISPOSAL DROP OFF EVENT <br />On Saturday, April 25 between 9 am and noon, <br />Louisville residents can recycle electronics and <br />safely dispose of household hazardous waste in a <br />City -sponsored event at the Ascent Church parking lot <br />(550 McCaslin Blvd). <br />Electronic waste <br />According to Colorado state law, all electronics must <br />be recycled. Unfortunately electronic waste can't be <br />recycled in your curbside carts since it is illegal for resi- <br />dents of Colorado to throw away or dump electronic <br />waste in their waste streams (i.e. household trash, <br />recycling, or compost). <br />To help residents properly recycle their electronic <br />waste, the following electronics will be accepted at the <br />City's drop off event: <br />CRT monitors and TVs, general E-waste keyboards, <br />mice, cords, cell phones, PDAs, iPods, handheld <br />devices, computer towers, servers, and laptops <br />The following items will NOT be accepted: <br />CRT TVs with broken glass, projection TVs of any size, <br />scrap metal, appliances, and microwaves <br />There is no charge to recycle computer towers, serv- <br />ers, and laptops. All other items will charged at a per/ <br />pound rate. Cash, checks, and credit cards will be <br />accepted. <br />For more information on recycling larger items such <br />as appliances, visit EcoCycle.org or call EcoCycle on <br />303.444.6634. <br />Household hazardous waste <br />Many products found in your kitchen, bathroom, <br />garage or garden shed are potentially hazardous <br />substances. <br />Motor oil, paints, pesticides, antifreeze, wood <br />preservatives, batteries and many household cleaners <br />contain solvents, petroleum products, heavy metals <br />or other toxic chemicals. When these products are <br />dumped in the trash or poured down the drain, their <br />hazardous chemicals can injure people or contaminate <br />drinking water sources. <br />At the April 25 event, residents can safely dispose of <br />their household hazardous waste free of charge. <br />Residents can also drop off household hazardous <br />waste at the Boulder County Hazardous Materials <br />Management (HMM) Facility located at 1901 63rd <br />St., west of the Boulder County Recycling Center, <br />Wednesday through Saturday 8:30 am - 4 pm. Contact <br />HMM at 720.564.2251 for more information about <br />their facility and hours. <br />• • • • • • • <br />• • • • • • • <br />• • • • • • • <br />ALL AGES BIKE FAIR <br />SATURDAY, MAY 9 <br />iiAM TO IPM <br />STEINBAUGH PAVILION <br />824 FRONT STREET <br />SAVE THE DATE <br />ALL Ages Activities, Live Music, Food, <br />and FUN! <br />FOR MORE DETAILS: <br />LOUISVILLECO.GOV/BIKETOBOOKS <br />• • • • • • • <br />• • • • • • • <br />• • • • • • • <br />• • • • • • • <br />Spring 2020 • Page 5 <br />
