Organizers claim the event is meant to make recycling easy and responsible. The city has teamed up with Full Circle Electronics to collect and properly recycle electronics that would otherwise end up in landfills.
Atlanta Recycling Solutions is in charge of recycling all the products that are approved. You can bring in a lot of things for free, but some TVs and older equipment may cost you. It will cost $30 for each acceptable TV and CRT device, and $50 for each projection TV.
Organizers note that console units and loose TV tubes will not be accepted, and cash is required for items with fees. If your business has a lot of electronics, you should get in touch with Full Circle Electronics directly to talk about arrangements.
Residents and small businesses can also bring up to five cartons of papers to be shredded on-site, in addition to recycling gadgets. You can safely get rid of private papers using a mobile shredding truck, and afterward the materials will be turned into new paper products.

You don’t have to take out paper clips, rubber bands, staples, or sticky notes, but you should take out binders and big metal things first. Officials said that if the shredding truck fills up before noon, the event will conclude early. People who have more than five boxes can get in touch with Ecoshredding directly.
Participants are instructed to stay in their cars while staff unloads the goods. The Natural Resources Commission also wants people to bring one can of food for every box of documents they shred. Donations will help the North Fulton Community Charities Food Bank, which will turn the day’s focus on recycling into an endeavor to help people in need.
