The WCA IGAP department held its third annual e-waste event at the carving shed last Saturday. This was the last e-waste event the cooperative association will be hosting for a year or so, according to Kim Wickman. During the e-waste event, people were encouraged to stop by the carving shed and drop off old or broken electronics, which the WCA is helping to ship away for proper disposal and recycling. Pictured here is Wickman with a bag full of nothing but old power cords. Wickman said in an email, after the event, that they gathered 19 pallets of mixed electronics, weighing a total of 10,102 pounds. These pallets are being sent to Total Reclaim, a Washington company, for recycling and disposal.
