The annual Fall Recycling Collection Event in Kent runs from from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, October 20 at Russell Road Park, 24400 Russell Road.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Residents can bring those items that are not easily recycled at the curb including appliances, mattresses, even toilets and sinks.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
They also can bring batteries and electronics other than computers or TVs, as these can be recycled free of charge, year-round at E-Cycle Washington designated collection sites. For a list of these sites, visit ecyclewashington.org.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Concrete, rocks, asphalt and bricks will also be accepted at the event. Please place these items on a tarp, plastic sheet or in buckets to speed up unloading. Tires and petroleum products will be collected as well.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The Shred-It of Washington Truck will offer free shredding of up to 3 file-sized boxes of documents per vehicle. V&G StyroRecycling will be on hand to collect Styrofoam blocks and peanuts.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
New this year, WestSide Baby staffers will be on site to collect children\u2019s car and booster seats. Seats less than 6 years old will be placed back into circulation for reuse. Seats not meeting safety standards will be dismantled and recycled.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
