A hard-to-recycle event next month at the Pittsburgh Mills in Frazer will kick off a series of six such events around the region this summer and fall.
The events, part of the Pennsylvania Resources Council’s Hard-to-Recycle Collection Campaign, allow residents to get rid of items not typically collected by trash haulers and Pittsburgh’s environment services, such as cellphones, tires, TVs, computer parts and more. Those wishing to drop off such items are asked to register in advance to streamline the process, organizers said.
