Electronic Recycling Days

Each quarter, Keep Allen Beautiful and the City of Allen provide a safe, environmentally friendly way for Allen residents to dispose of unwanted or obsolete computers and small electronics. Recycling these items instead of sending them to the landfill saves money, conserves valuable resources, and keeps harmful elements out of our environment. Watch for the next collection date!
