Editor’s note: As was previously posted on The Banner, there is an electronics recycling event in Whitewater on Saturday, May 17. This Jefferson County event is shared primarily in case readers have a conflict with the 17th event, although in a few cases the $10 per carload might be less expensive than a quantity of items for which there is a charge at the Whitewater event.

Do you have unused, outdated or broken electronics & appliances around your home? Bring them to the Electronic & Appliance Recycling Event on Saturday, May 10 from 8-11 a.m. at Jefferson County Fair Park (503 North Jackson Ave, Jefferson). The event is open to all Jefferson County HOUSEHOLDS. Editor’s note: Jefferson County allows all City of Whitewater residents to participate in their events even if they live in Walworth County.

You do NOT need to register for the event! Simply, come to the Fair Park between 8 and 11 a.m. First come, first served. $10 per vehicle (cash only).
