Bossier City, Louisiana – May 4, 2024 – Bossier Schools is partnering with Keep Bossier Beautiful to host an e-waste recycling event as part of the I3 ART EXPO. The event will take place on Saturday, May 4, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the parking lot of the Bossier Civic Center.
Visitors to the I3 ART EXPO will have the opportunity to responsibly dispose of small electronics, including computer hardware, accessories, laptops, and old telephones. The Keep Bossier Beautiful trailer will be on-site to collect these items for recycling.
According to Bossier Schools, the initiative aims to encourage proper disposal of electronic waste and promote environmental sustainability within the community. By offering a convenient drop-off location, the event seeks to prevent these items from ending up in landfills, where they can pose environmental hazards.
While the event provides an opportunity to recycle a variety of electronic devices, there are some limitations on the items that can be accepted. Appliances, televisions, and DVD players are among the items that will not be accepted at the e-waste event. For a full list of acceptable items for recycling, visitors are encouraged to visit the Keep Bossier Beautiful website at www.keepbossierbeautiful.com.
The I3 ART EXPO serves as a platform for showcasing creativity and innovation within the community, making it an ideal setting for the e-waste recycling initiative. By incorporating the recycling event into the larger expo, Bossier Schools aims to raise awareness about the importance of responsible electronic waste disposal while fostering a culture of environmental stewardship among attendees.
Residents of Bossier City and surrounding areas are encouraged to participate in the e-waste recycling event to contribute to a cleaner and more sustainable environment.
