Great Recycling Event!

The Cayuga County Electronics recycling event this past Saturday was a huge success. Long lines of vehicles were apparent for most of the day at the BOCES facility on West Genesee St. in Aurelius. The good news was that line moved fairly quickly and my wait was only about 30-40 minutes. The Staff and volunteers were kept very busy unloading cars loaded with old TV's, batteries, computers and light bulbs. The annual recycling event is intended to keep these types of products out of our limited land fill space and to also prevent possible ground water contamination. Thanks to all the various agency staff, volunteers and participants for all doing their part to recycle in Cayuga County.
