If you have a lot of JUNK lying around the house, I bet a big portion of it is actually electronics and computer related equipment.

Do some spring cleaning and bring it to the parking lot of the Senior & Community Center (204 Hillside Av, Livingston) from 9am-2pm, Saturday, March 27 and be rid of it for good!

The township will shred your paperwork on site.

And if you have any of the following digital leftovers hanging around, they’ll take that too and have it properly recycled on your behalf for free.    You just have to drop it off from 9a-2p on that Saturday.

  • computers and computer components
  • monitors
  • printers
  • fax machines
  • scanners
  • speakers
  • keyboards
  • main frames
  • telecom equipment
  • TVs
  • VCRs
  • stereos
  • radios
  • DVD players
  • toasters
  • irons
  • cell phones
  • pagers
  • PDAs
  • diskettes
  • DVD
  • zip disks
  • audio and video tapes
  • inkjet
  • laser printer and fax cartridges
  • rechargeable batteries

BTW, you can also recycle your used up batteries at time of the year at the Livingston Library – they have a drop off bin by the front doors.

And Happy New Year in Livingston, NJ!

It’s 2010 right around the corner, and that means time to take down the lights, tree decorations and the tree itself.

livingston-mulch (Small)Livingston is going green this year again and mulching up all discarded live Christmas trees. Just put your trees out curbside anytime in January Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm and the township will pick them up for free.

The Livingston Department of Public works will chip the trees into mulch (I believe by the Livingston circle, behind the Firehouse). The best part is that the DPW makes all the mulch available to residents for free pick-up, at no cost, while supplies last.

Just call the Livingston DPW at 973-535-7931 for details and to schedule a pick-up.
