This year's annual E-rase your E-waste event is set for Sept. 9 and 10, so clear out those closets and storage sheds and recycle all of those damaged and obsolete electronics for free.
"We've had a number of questions from people asking about our fall event, so we are excited to let everyone know that the dates have been set," event coordinator Heather Luinstra said early this month. "Once again, we have partnered with Yellowstone E-Waste Solutions out of Billings and we will host a joint event with the Town of Fairview. Collection times for the weekend event in Sidney are from 3-7 p.m., Friday Sept. 9, and 8 a.m.-noon, Saturday, Sept. 10. The collection site will be at the Richland County Shop, right next to the fairgrounds.
Fairview's collection event is on Saturday, Sept. 10, 10 a.m.-noon. The Fairview location will be at the water station on 9th St.
As in past years, local businesses, hospitals, school and other agencies and organizations with large amounts to e-cycle are asked to make an appointment by calling Luinstra at the Richland County Health Department 406-433-2207 or emailing [email protected].
Now in its 18th year, the event is open to area residents throughout the MonDak. The volunteer E-rase your E-waste program has recycled more than a half million pounds of damaged or obsolete electronics from this area, helping to preserve the life of the local landfill, and to protect the health of local citizens and the environment.
