Electronics Recycling Day
I know, one mans old 486 is another man’s firewall or router, but there is a point at which it really is time to get rid of those old electronics sitting around, and that time is quickly approaching.
It’s time for the annual Keep Norfolk Beautiful Electronics Recycling Day, April 19th. Keep Norfolk Beautiful assists residents yearly with disposing of their electronic goods which can be nasty little time bombs in landfills.
Collection is between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. outside of the WHRO parking lot at the intersection of Hampton Boulevard and 49th St. There is no charge.
Here is a list of items that are acceptable:
- Computers
- Mice
- Monitors
- Cables
- TVs
- Personal digital assistants
- Printers
- Stereos
- VCRs
- DVD players
- Video equipment
- Scanners
- Radios
- Flat panel displays
- Video game players
- Copy machines
- Fax machines
- Phones
- Cell phones
- Answering machines
- Tape recorders
- Reel-to-reel tape players
- Medical electronics
- Surveillance equipment
- Toasters
- Microwaves
Be sure to destroy those harddrives, even in your old PDA’s. I recommend this method.

They should do it as a recycling exchange. If someone was actually dropping off a reel-to-reel I’d be interested
