SHOW LOW, Ariz. (July 30, 2018) – A free residential electronic waste, used tire and newly added household hazardous recycling event will be held Saturday, August 25, from 8 a.m. to noon in the Show Low City Hall parking lot, 180 N. 9th Street in Show Low.

No ammunition, explosives, medical waste (including medications), biohazardous or infectious waste, compressed gas cylinders (except propane tanks), large home appliances, radioactive waste and smoke alarms are allowed. Commercial hazardous waste also is not allowed.

The City of Show Low is partnering with Navajo County, Town of Pinetop-Lakeside, Town of Snowflake, Town of Taylor, Arizona Public Service, Navopache Electric Cooperative, Smithfield, Summit Healthcare Regional Medical Center, UNS Gas and Tucson Electric Power to present this regional event.
