Anything with a power cord or battery will be accepted.

“This is a perfect time to clean house right before the holidays so you can have more room to entertain family and friends, decorate the house and put up new electronics received as holiday gifts,” said Ron Darling, chairman of Hazelwood’s Green Committee.

For the past two years, Allied has partnered with the City of Hazelwood on two major “Recycling Day” events at St. Louis Outlet Mall as part of its annual Community Clean-Up Campaign.  In 2011, the event collected 79.5 tons of recyclable materials dropped off by 616 vehicles.
