Obsolete personal computers, outdated microwave ovens and old bedding can find new life at a Cook County-funded recycling center at South Suburban College in South Holland.
Students at South Suburban College in South Holland help in setting up the new recycling center.
Cook County and South Suburban College have partnered to open a new recycling center at the South Holland school. Another benefit could be reducing illegal fly-dumping of items such as electronics, with the South Suburban College center being one of few places where e-waste can be regularly recycled. Landline phones, fax machines, desktop printers and printer ink and toner cartridges are also on the acceptable list for the recycling center.
