Last time I did this it cost me a small fortune….beware, they charge for batteries and lightbulbs.

I have used this e-waste event often in order to support DVC. The only thing they ever charged me for is $5 a microwave, whch is very reasonable compared to lots of other events.

Thankyou for confirming exactly what I said. They charge for batteries and bulbs…A LOT.

They CHARGE at a FREE e-waste pickup?

Hmmm… They should just simply not take the item and state they don’t take them..

That way you don’t waste your time and can find another way to get rid of the items.. Say free e-waste event (excluding 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 whatever)

Yeah, I’ve been to “free” e-waste events where you are expected to “donate” a certain amt. per item.
