Sweet Take on Weird Waste

By Pam Learned, HillontheAvenue

If you are anything like me, nothing’s sweeter than cleaning out old electronic equipment—especially if it can be put to good use. This week, Green in Chestnut Hill, (GRINCH) is making the whole clean-up experience sweeter with a bake sale by Night Kichen bakery to be held during this Saturday’s Weird Waste Day, November 13, 2010, from 1-4 p.m. at Valley Green Bank.

This is GRINCH’s 3rd Weird Waste Day. Last April, the second event drew 180 people who dropped of 12,000 pounds of weird waste.

You can easily haul old computers, monitors, routers, electronic health equipment, and parts like sound and video cards to the event’s parking lot location next to Valley Green Bank at 23 West Highland Avenue.

For 40¢ per pound, your cpu’s, tv’s, printers, faxes, cell phones , and other electronic bits and pieces will be responsibly reused or dismantled instead of being thrown in a landfill. For more information and a complete list of recyclables accepted, visit www.greeninchestnuthill.blogspot.com. And, bookmark their site, because it’s a good one!
