Free Electrical Waste Collection Day This Weekend

359

Homeowners are being urged to bring their electrical and electronic waste to a free collection day. 

The events, hosted by WEEE Ireland with support from the council kicks off tomorrow at The Mart, Cashel Road, Cahir from 10am-4pm. 

The aim is to help the county meet recycling targets, as it was below the national collection rate of 10.8kg of e waste recycled per person last year.

All household items with a plug or a battery will be accepted free of charge, including old washing machines, TVs, toasters and kettles, electronic tools and toys, cables, IT equipment, mobile phones, remote controls, and even watches.
