Refuse to Make Refuse… Dare to Repair!
We have all heard the three R’s: reduce, reuse, and recycle.  One very important “R” that gets left out is “Repair.”  In 2014, the Hendricks County Solid Waste District’s Tox-Away Days collected 96,363 pounds of appliances and electronics to be recycled.  And recycling is great, but did you know that reusing is even better?  So, before you recycle, check to see if your item can be repaired.

Fortunately, Hendricks County has lots of local repair shops staffed with knowledgeable people just waiting to help you extend the life of your phone, sewing machine, lawn mower, computer, clothing, car and appliances.  Have you checked them out?  Here are just a few….
