MONTREAL (RecyclingMonster): Prevail Bank will host a community collection event on July 23. The event, open to residents of Stevens Point, will provide them with an opportunity to recycle unwanted household electronics free of charge. The recycling drive will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the bank's branch located on Windy Drive.

Certified Electronics Recycler Ensures Secure Data Destruction
The event is being organized in partnership with certified electronics recycling company First Choice, which will be responsible for responsible recycling of the collected materials.
The company will ensure that all data stored on electronic devices are securely erased at its certified processing facility before the devices are destroyed.
Residents Invited to Bring a Wide Range of Household Electronics
Residents can bring a wide range of personal household electronics, including televisions, computer monitors, laptops, desktop computers, printers, mobile phones, tablets, keyboards, speakers, hard drives, cameras, DVD players, VCRs, radios, docking stations, and cables.
By accepting many common household devices, the event gives residents a convenient way to clear out unwanted electronics while keeping them out of landfills.
Items Not Accepted at the Stevens Point Collection Event
However, the event will not accept certain materials such as batteries, light bulbs, household appliances, air conditioners, dehumidifiers, hazardous waste, scrap metal, and electronic equipment generated by businesses.
These exclusions help ensure that the collection focuses on personal household electronics and that materials requiring different handling methods are directed to appropriate disposal or recycling channels.
