Village Offers Free Electronics Recycling!
3/28/2012
The Village of Schiller Park offers free electronics recycling to residents through a partnership with Vintage Tech Recyclers and West Cook County Solid Waste Agency (WCSWA). The Village is participating in this effort to better our environment. Since most electronics contain toxic substances such as mercury it is much better for the environment for these items to be properly recycled rather that dumped in landfills with other trash. The program is funded by grant money obtained by the WCSWA and comes at no cost to the residents or the Village.
Village residents can drop off eligible electronics items at the Village Street Department Garage (located directly behind Village Hall) between 8:00 AM and 3:00 PM Monday-Friday. The drop-off point is located inside the Street Garage at the rear of the first garage bay. Items eligible for drop-off include computers, monitors, DVD players, stereos, copiers, fax machines, and many more. A flyer containing all the relevant details can be viewed by clicking here, in the front office, or downloaded from the website. The Village is very happy to be able to offer this free service to our residents and employees and hopes that many take advantage of this convenient way to help the environment.
