This summer Bucks County will have four hazardous waste drop off dates for residents. While this program is nice, I really wish it was just a little easier to dispose properly of hazardous waste.I believe you are limited as to how many computers you can drop off. There are two things you should keep in mind when dropping computers and monitors off
- Keep a record of the serial number and the fact that you dropped it off at a properly designated drop off point. If the machine should ever turn up in an illicit landfill, you will have proof that you acted properly if the EPA should prosecute you (that has happened in the past with some waste disposal companies)
- The hard drives should be physically removed or destroyed. Simply erasing or formatting them does not adequately remove sensitive information.
The dates and locations are
- Lower Makefield Corporate Center: May 3rd
- Upper Bucks County Area Vocational Technical School: June 21st
- Middle Bucks Institute of Technology: July 19th
- Bucks County Technical High School: August 16th
- Quakertown Community Pool: September 27th

Here’s a great opportunity to get rid of of hazardous materials you have around your house. Bucks county only runs this program during the summer and early fall. Take a look at the link below and find a recycling date and place near you. Of particular interest is the fact that they will collect old computers and monitors which should not be disposed of in the regular trash.
