FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LONGWOOD, Florida (April 23, 2015) – A1 Assets and the city of Winter Park are teaming up once again to hold a free recycling drive for residents to properly dispose of their unwanted electronics and hazardous waste.

The event will take place on Saturday, April 25, between 8am-12pm, at Winter Park’s Public Works Compound at 1409 Howell Branch Road, and will be open exclusively for city residents. At that time, A1 Assets staff will be on hand to collect electronic devices, including old computers, monitors, laptops, telephones, stereo equipment, televisions, VCR & DVD players, and mobile gadgets.
