Electronics Recycling At BIG!NYC Suspended

The electronics recycling program at BIG!NYC, operated by the Lower East Side Ecology Center, has been officially suspended due to lack of funding. Please DO NOT BRING ELECTRONICS to BIG!NYC anymore.

The program is only continuing in districts in which citycouncil members have pledged funding or private sources have come forward to provide sponsorship. Pickups at Build It Green! NYC cost over $1000 per month and LESEC can longer afford to pay for the pickups.

Check Office of Recycling Outreach and Education for recycling outlets: http://cenyc.org/recycling/recyclingevents

Please bring your e-waste to these events run by Lower East Side Ecology Center.
