Association Host British Columbia's First Electronic Toy Recycling Event

VANCOUVER, Sept. 30 /CNW/ - On October 2, Waste Management of Canada and the Canadian Toy Association invite you to join British Columbia consumers as they bring their used, unwanted or damaged electronic toys to B.C.'s first electronic toy recycling drive.

This initiative not only provides B.C. residents a way to conveniently and responsibly dispose of their end-of-life electronics, but it aims to meet B.C.'s Recycling Regulation.
