Great Parks to Host E-Waste Events with Cohen Recycling

The first event will take place this Saturday at Miami Whitewater Forest Harbor.

(Hamilton County, Oh.) – Great Parks is renewing its electronics waste recycling team-up with Cohen Recycling through a series of three collection events coming to different parks over three months.

Collecting e-waste at these events will divert toxic materials such as heavy metals away from landfills, from which they can find their way into watersheds and wildlife areas.

The upcoming e-waste recycling events are scheduled for 9:00 AM to noon on the following Saturdays:

  • September 7 at Miami Whitewater Forest Harbor
  • October 12 at Woodland Mound
  • November 2 at Winton Woods Harbor

E-waste from outdated computers and cell phones is a quickly growing concern worldwide. There is no maximum number of items a person can drop off. Devices with a cathode ray tube, such as old televisions and flat screen TVs, require a $10 fee.

The full list of materials that will be accepted is available on the Cohen website, and includes:

  • Any item with a cord or that takes a cord
  • Computers
  • Cell phones
  • DVD players
  • Video game systems
  • Telephones
  • Remote controls
  • Batteries
  • Laptops
  • Tablets
  • Fax machines
  • Keyboards

  • and many other items not listed here.
