| Kirkland - Electronics Reuse and Recycling |
Circuit boards in electronics like computers and TVs contain heavy metals that are banned from garbage and recycling containers in King County. Electronics must be reused or recycled.
(Small non-electronic appliances and scrap metal are accepted in recycling carts.)
Reuse is Better than Recycling! Reusing an item saves about 20 times as much energy as recycling it. For example, you can give unwanted electronics or take them to second hand stores.
