Westside Landfill is re-opening its recycling center this weekend.

The facility on Roberts Road will be open 7:30-11:30 a.m. Saturday and will continue to be open each Saturday to accept electronics, residential paper, plastic, glass, lead and batteries, propane tanks and tires, said Eric Shafer of Waste Management.

Electronics accepted include computers and computer equipment, printers, wires and cords, monitors, stereo equipment, game consoles, car batteries and kitchen appliances.

Paper items accepted include magazines, newspapers, phone books and corrugated cardboard.

Co-mingled recyclables accepted include metal and aluminum cans, foil, glass bottles and jars, milk jugs, and water and shampoo bottles, No. 1 and No. 2 plastic containers.

The collection also accepts books in good shape, wine corks, box tops and Campbell’s soup labels for local schools, lead-acid batteries and for-deposit bottles and cans that will be used to help support the Fabius Township recycling program.

There is a $1 cost for non-Fabius Township residents.
