The computers and other household electronics contain hazardous materials that require proper disposal.
This service will be provided all other Blount County residents at the Alcoa / Maryville / Blount County landfill, also operated by the City of Alcoa, located at 240 Long Powers Road.
For Alcoa residents, the Service Center is open every Tuesday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. except holidays. The items may be dropped off at the receptionist’s desk inside the building’s main lobby. Proof of Alcoa residency (driver’s license, etc.) will be required.
The Landfill is open Monday through Saturday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Customers should arrive by 5:00 p.m.
This program, using the services of Creative Recycling Systems, provides a responsible alternative to disposal in the landfill that is safe and environmentally-friendly, said Kenny Wiggins, director of public works and engineering. “While we encourage residents to remove all personal information from their computers, these will be processed by CRS in a manner that will ensure no data may be recovered and misused.”
