On Saturday, April 11 from 9am-12pm, Soulard Community Improvement District is hosting an electronics recycling and document recycling event behind Edele and Mertz Hardware (1822 S. Broadway). We’re partnering with MRC Recycling. Their trained staff will be ready to direct you through the event in an organized manner and answer any questions you have.
MRC plans to have all of the man power needed to unload your vehicle of your electronics for proper recycling, so there is usually no need to exit the vehicle. Simply tell the staff what you have to drop off, and where it is located, pop the trunk open if needed, and they’ll take care of the rest!
