Building a Sustainable York: Free Community E-Cycle Day with State Representative Carol Hill-Evans

Two people exchange old electronics outdoors—one hands over a desktop computer tower in black gloves, while the other offers a closed laptop. A cardboard box for electronics recycling sits on the table nearby.

Omega ECycles is excited to partner with State Representative Carol Hill-Evans for a Free Community Shredding & Electronics Recycling Event.

📅 Saturday, November 1, 2025
🕙 10:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.
📍 Spring Garden Township Municipal Building
340 Tri Hill Road, Suite A, York, PA 17403

This free event gives residents of York and surrounding areas a simple, sustainable way to recycle their old electronics and securely dispose of personal documents. It is a hands-on opportunity to take part in building a cleaner, safer, and more connected community.

🌍 A Community Effort Toward Sustainability

Partnerships like this one highlight how sustainability and civic leadership go hand in hand. Representative Carol Hill-Evans has long been an advocate for environmental responsibility and community well-being. Omega ECycles shares that vision by providing safe and responsible recycling solutions for waste electronics recycling throughout Pennsylvania.

When residents drop off outdated technology at events like this, it does more than free up space at home. It helps prevent toxic materials from entering landfills, recovers valuable resources, and ensures sensitive data is handled securely.

This event is about more than disposal. It’s about making sustainability a shared habit and showing that a small local action can make a large statewide impact.

🧠 What You Can Bring

Bring your unwanted or outdated devices to be responsibly recycled. The following items will be accepted:

  • Computers (Desktops and Laptops)
  • Hard Drives
  • Flat-Screen Monitors
  • Printers and Copiers
  • DVD Players and VCRs
  • Modems, Routers, and USB Cords
  • Cell Phones and Mobile Devices
  • Insulated Cables and Wires
  • Gaming Consoles (Xbox, PlayStation, etc.)
  • iPads and Tablets
  • Cable Boxes

In addition to electronic recycling, on-site paper shredding will be available for residents who want to safely dispose of old financial records, personal files, and other confidential papers.

🔒 Protecting Data and the Environment

Every electronic device holds pieces of our digital lives: passwords, personal files, photos, and financial information. Throwing these items in the trash can expose you to identity theft and data breaches.

Omega ECycles’ electronics recycling facility ensures all collected items undergo complete data destruction before recycling begins. Drives are wiped, shredded, or degaussed according to industry-recognized standards, giving residents peace of mind that their information stays private.

By pairing secure recycling with environmental protection, we help individuals and organizations close the loop on responsible technology use.

🏛️ Leadership in Local Sustainability

Representative Carol Hill-Evans, who serves the 95th Legislative District, continues to champion environmental awareness and community access. Events like this bring together local government, recycling professionals, and residents to create real impact right where it matters most – at the community level.

Omega ECycles is proud to support those efforts by offering professional waste electronics recycling services that make sustainability simple and accessible. Together, we’re showing that responsible recycling isn’t just an environmental decision; it’s a civic one.

🌿 Why Responsible Electronics Recycling Matters

Improper disposal of electronics can release harmful materials such as mercury, cadmium, and lead into the soil and water. Responsible recycling with Omega eliminates that risk while keeping reusable metals and plastics in circulation.

Our electronics recycling facility in York follows strict standards to ensure every device is processed responsibly. Each piece of equipment collected is logged, stripped, and sorted for recycling or proper disposal.

When residents bring their devices to Omega ECycles, they contribute to a circular economy that benefits both the planet and local industry.

💚 How This Event Strengthens the Community

  1. Promotes Local Responsibility: Encourages York residents to adopt sustainable habits that support the environment.
