Supervisor Ed Romaine has announced that Dime Community Bank has contributed $4,000 to co-sponsor the Town of Brookhaven’s community recycling events. Each year the Town holds recycling events that include paper shredding, e-waste disposal and a supervised prescription drug drop-off program in every Brookhaven Town Council District. The 12 scheduled recycling events will help residents properly dispose of sensitive documents which, when improperly discarded, can fall into the hands of identity thieves. Residents can also dispose of e-waste and expired prescription drugs in an environmentally safe manner.
The 2023 recycling events are open to all Brookhaven Town residents for their personal, household material. No business records or medical practice records will be accepted. For more information, call 451-TOWN (8696) or visit our special recycling page.
Documents brought in for shredding will be fed into an industrial shredder, enabling each participant to witness the secure destruction of sensitive papers. Paper can be brought in boxes or bags. Documents can remain stapled together, but paper clips and other metal must be removed along with any other contaminants such as rubber bands. The 2021 schedule of events are as follows:
