All 12 events include paper shredding, e-waste and prescription drug take backs
Farmingville, NY - Supervisor Ed Romaine has announced 12 community recycling events sponsored by the Town that include paper shredding, e-waste disposal and a supervised prescription drug drop-off program in every Brookhaven Council District. These events will help residents properly dispose of sensitive documents which, when improperly discarded, can fall into the hands of identity thieves. Residents can also dispose of e-waste and expired prescription drugs in an environmentally safe manner. These recycling events are open to all Brookhaven Town residents. No business records or medical practices.
