CVWMA partners with Ashland on electronics recycling. Electronics must be recycled through reputable recycling vendors or special community events only.
CVWMA contractor Securis holds an electronics recycling event on the first Saturday of each month at 8419 Glazebrook Ave., Henrico. The event is open to all residents of Central Virginia. Fees apply. For more information, see the calendar of events.
Never place electronics or batteries in curbside or drop-off recycling containers.
Brush and Leaf Collection. The town street crew collects brush and leaves placed at the curb year-round. This yard waste is then chipped into a mulch that is available at the Town Shop to residents free of charge on a self-serve basis. As an alternative and/or supplement to curbside brush collection, the town also encourages composting yard waste.
