This Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Charleston County Recycling will host an electronic recycling day at the Citadel Mall. Disposing of eWaste is an ever growing problem, and this is a great opportunity to act responsibly. They will accept almost anything: TVs, computers, camcorders, clocks, radios, microwaves, telephones…if it’s got a plug, bring it in! They’ll even be raffling off a flat screen TV for anyone who recycles.
So head on down to the mall on Saturday to participate in America Recycles Day. Be sure to call 843.720.7111 if you have any questions. Happy recycling!
