St
Croix County Recycling Program began collecting cell phones in an effort to
assist in preserving the environment, bring communications to people who
could not otherwise afford it and raise funds for recycling education and
programming.
All cell phones are
accepted, but at this point we are limiting collection to the phones and
batteries only. All phones receive new chargers and accessories before being
given out to those in need for safety reasons. Make certain to deactivate
your phone before turning them in. St Croix County will receive a donation
for every used cell phone that we collect.
Phones are now being
collected at the Baldwin Agricultural Center and
St Croix County Planning and Zoning
Department in the Government Center
in Hudson. Also, many retailers are getting in the act by offering this
service to customers.
