The Rochester Land Trust is joining with CRT Recycling of Brockton to collect old computers, televisions, electronics and appliances that no longer work. Bring these items to the Rochester Town Hall Annex parking lot on Saturday, April 26.

CRT will then haul these items to its Brockton facility for sorting for reuse or to be broken down for appropriate recycling of the components. Whichever the outcome, less solid waste will end up in landfills. Visit www.recyclingelectronics.com for information on CRT.

Also, on that Saturday, the land trust is partnering with the Women’s Club for the annual roadside trash clean-up. After dropping off electronics, get gloves and yellow trash bags, select a road and pick up roadside trash that has accumulated all year.

The following items will be accepted: monitors and televisions, computers, network servers, large office computer equipment, CPU boxes, laptops, printers, fax machines, CD-roms, DVD-roms, VCRs, audio equipment, video games, disc drives, modems, cards, keyboards, computer mice, electronic wires or plugs, PC speakers, recording, surveillance or camera equipment, digital cameras, cell phones and accessories, LCD products, parts or pieces of computers as well as regulated and non-regulated appliances such as air conditioners, refrigerators, stoves, microwaves, mini-refrigerators and coolers.

There is a $15 charge for televisions and a $10 charge for monitors. These items require extra care in recycling due to their cathode ray tubes. While there is no charge for other items, the land trust requests a $5 donation for other electronic items or bag/box of accessories, and $10 for appliances and other large items. Funds raised will go toward protecting open space in the community. RLT members will be there from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. to help unload items. For more information, call Norene at 508-763-3628.
