Electronics Recycling Information

Recycling is an issue that comes up in our community and the City of Champaign has great information about the best ways to recycle electronics in the area.

Champaign County also has annual recycling events in the fall and spring. Their fall event has been completely booked (see link above).

However you can also consult their resident’s guide for Recycle/Reuse Unwanted Electronics to see how dispose of these items throughout the year.

Gifford Recycling

The Village of Gifford now has a recycling container for Gifford residents.

The container is located just West of Casey’s, across 136 from the Village building. The recycling container accepts paper, plastic, and cardboard.

We ask that all residents break down materials (cardboard specifically), to the best of their abilities, to ensure we fill the container to its maximum capacity.
