There is a $20 fee to recycle televisions and cathode-ray tube, or CRT, computer monitors. Large appliances, such as washing machines, will not be accepted. All other items will be recycled for free.
The event is aimed at personal electronic items, but small businesses with fewer than 50 employees can also bring electronics to be recycled.
