October Weekday E-Waste Collections in Allegheny County

Posted on September 9, 2024 by Mary Beth Mueller

Throughout October, PRC will collect electronics for recycling on designated weekdays in Allegheny County.  Through the generous support of Allegheny County Health Department, PRC will conduct e-waste collection events on Mondays and Wednesdays in October in North Park.

“PRC helps residents conveniently and cost-effectively dispose of a wide variety of items not accepted in curbside pickup,” according to PRC Executive Director Darren Spielman.  “We need to divert these materials from landfills since many contain toxic elements that can leach into our waterways and our environment, while others contain valuable resources.”

The four-week collection series takes place in North Park:

Mondays, October 7, 14, 21, 28 from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m.

Wednesdays, October 9, 16, 23, 30 from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m.
