Norman holds electronics recycling drop-off Nov. 14 at Westwood Aquatic Center

NORMAN - Residents can drop off old electronics Saturday, Nov. 14, from 9 a.m. to noon in the Westwood Aquatic Center parking lot, 1017 Fairway Drive, according to a City of Norman release dated Nov. 9.

The city's Division of Environmental Resilience & Sustainability (DoERS) is hosting the drive-through event, and no registration is needed. Contractor United Electronic Recycling will wipe personal data from devices, the city says.

Accepted items include televisions, computer monitors, laptops and tablets, printers, copiers and scanners, phones, audio and video equipment, keyboards, modems and hard drives. Organizers say almost anything with a cord is generally accepted.

The city says the collection, held since 2020, keeps toxic materials out of landfills and recovers precious and rare materials. More than 70,000 pounds of electronics were collected last year, according to the release.

Questions go to DoERS@normanok.gov.
