Ecyclers USA has left 6 large boxes behind the Haleyville City Hall for your old used computers, monitors, cables, basically, anything electronic which is no longer of use but you just did not have the heart to throw away. These items don’t belong in a landfill but sometimes in up there. This Knoxville, TN, based company will take care of recycling what it can and take care of the rest. More information can be found at ecyclersusa. These boxes will be in the City Hall back parking lot next to the old police cars until full. If there is enough demand, the company can and will bring more boxes when they pick these up. Otherwise, this will be a periodic event for Haleyville and the surrounding area.
