Electronics

Electronics are not bulky items but can be placed next to your garbage container on your regular pickup day. We will collect this e-waste and deliver to the Leon County Solid Waste Management Facility for proper recycling and disposal.

Many types of electronics (such as televisions and computer monitors, cell phones, electronics with computer chips) contain hazardous materials.Most computers monitors and TV's contain a cathode ray tube (CRT) which can contain 3 to 6 pounds of lead, a hazardous material that should not be landfilled or burned in Waste to Energy facilities. In addition, computers and other electronic equipment contains small amounts of mercury and hexavalent chromium which also should not be burned or landfilled.

Working electronics can be donated to Goodwill Services (576.7145).

On the subject of lead in the CRT - Does any one know where it is ? . Is it mixed with the glass ? I never actually saw typical lead that could be sold as lead from a CRT Lead is about .50 .60 per lb
I guess this metal business is not healthy
