Free Electronics Recycling and Shred Fest

About this event

This event will take place in the parking lot of The Space.. Arapahoe Libraries is pleased to announce the Free E-Recycling and Shred Fest at The Space. On August 29, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., patrons will have the opportunity to bring a variety of those items we all know we’re supposed to recycle, but might not have the capacity to figure out exactly how that will happen. With on-site e-recycling with Blue Star and shredding with Shred IT, patrons can expect a gratifying summer morning of sustainability. This event will be held in the parking lot with drive-up services for shredding and e-recycling. Simply drive up and follow the signs for your recycling and shredding needs.
