E-Recycling Event Hosted by The St. Marys EarthKeepers and the Tribune & Georgian. 

Due to requests from so many in our community, the EarthKeepers are hosting another E-Scrap event. Our last two resulted in the collection of over 23 tons of electronic material. Let’s see if we can beat our own record! 


Date: Saturday, Sept. 15, 10 am - 4 pm 


Location: The Tribune & Georgian parking lot, 206 Osborne St., St. Marys


Costs: A suggested donation of $5 (per vehicle) would be most appreciated. 


What: Computers, flat-screen monitors, cables etc, cell phones, copiers, keyboards, printers, DVD/CD players and other electronic equipment. DVDs, floppy discs, VCR tapes etc. (Note: TVs are no longer accepted during on-site collections). 


Details: Recycling E-Scrap is an EPA approved electronic recycling company that meets all H.I.P.P.A. requirements. The company will remove all unwanted or unused electronic equipment, including battery-operated equipment, batteries, non-ferrous metals and plastic. 


On the day of the pickup, Recycling E-Scrap contractors will supply the labor to load the equipment onto the truck. At the time of the pickup, a complete inventory list of all the items will be made followed by a secondary inventory once the items arrive at the warehouse in Jacksonville, Fl. 
The electronics materials are checked in and then completely cleansed of all data. (A "Certificate of Destruction" will then be available after the cleansing process is completed). 100% of all materials are then recycled.
