Registration for the Electronics Collection with the Ottawa Sandusky Seneca Solid Waste District is now open and will remain open until the end of April.
In effort to keep harmful materials out of the local landfills, the Ottawa Sandusky Seneca Solid Waste District holds these special collection events for residents to properly dispose of unwanted materials. These materials are grouped into four main categories: Electronics, Tires, Appliances, and Household Hazardous Waste (HHW). These collections are for all residents of Ottawa Sandusky and Seneca County - including all residents of Bellevue and Fostoria. Businesses and institutions are not accepted at these collections.
This is a mostly free service for residents, aside from some small fees for certain TV’s during the Electronics Collection in which there will be a $5 charge for glass tube televisions that are 24” or less, and $10 for and that are 25” and larger. Console, DLP, and Projection screen TV’s are not accepted in this collection. Television screens with broken screens are also not accepted for the safety of the collection volunteers. Other accepted items for the electronics collection include computers and related computer equipment, monitors, and Audio/Visual equipment.
In an effort to be prepared with the best amount of supplies and workers for each collection, The District will continue to enforce that residents pre-register for each collection. Registration can be done online at RecycleOSS.org, or by calling The District at 419-334-7222 ext. 0 and following the prompt provided. There will be locations in all three counties for residents to participate in these collections. Information specific to all of the District’s special collections including dates times and locations are found while registering.
After the Electronics Collection, other collections for the year include Tires, as well as the Appliance Collections, with registration starting May 1st for those two. In the fall there will be the HHW collection with registration for that starting September 1st. There will only be one collection date for each of the special collections offered by the District. This makes registration vital for the 2024 collections to ensure your spot in the collection. Remember, if a resident does not register, they will be unable to participate in the collection.
