Lakewood Earth Day Recycling To Take Electronics Waste
Gather your old or broken electronic appliances to get rid of them in Lakewood in April.

LAKEWOOD, CO – Start gathering your old and broken electronics for a Lakewood recycling event in honor of Earth Day on April 27. Lakewood's Earth Day events will take place from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. at 777 S. Yarrow St.
Disposing of your ancient television or microwave in the regular garbage collection is illegal, so this event can clear out space in your garage or basement just in time for spring.
The costs for appliance recycling are as follows:
