Electronic waste recycling this weekend in Santiago



For those who don’t know, Sunday is celebrated the Earth Day, and to celebrate a variety of initiatives. One is organized by the Providencia district in Santiago and probably more than any you will: it is a fair Electronic waste recycling.

The event started today at Bustamante Park (Bustamante and Bilbao), Las Lilas Square, the Ines de Suarez Park, Av The Hill (behind the Sheraton hotel), with Araucano Monitor street and the Plaza Melchor Concha Forest with William Edwards .

It’s expect to collect over 100 tons of garbage until Sunday 22, which will be taken to a plant to remove the devices and reuse most of components, and isolate those who are dangerous to health.

It accepts almost any type of electronic, except refrigerators because they are very large. But you can take old computers, printers, fax machines, washing machines, phones, televisions, radios, peripherals, etc...
