Electronic Recycling Station now open!

In cooperation with eLoop, we now have an electronic recycling drop off facility at the Peters Township Public Works Department at 750 Bebout Road (at the entrance to Peterswood Park.). Electronics (TV’s, Computers, Monitors, Printers, Toasters, Stereos, Coffee makers, etc.) can be dropped of Monday through Thursday from 7:30 a.m. –11a.m. and  noon-3p.m. You must call 724-941-6161 in advance to ensure someone will be there. All computers will have their hard drive destroyed. The Township has entered into this partnership with eLoop in preparation for the January 2012 statewide prohibition of placing electronics in with your garbage. You can read a complete list of items that can be dropped off. This is a free program to the public. All township residents are encouraged to use this facility now and not wait until the state mandate. Waste Management will be continuing to collect these items throughout this year, but it would be better for the environment to recycle these items.
