Thanks for the tip. I went last year with a mini-van chock full to the brim. There was a line of cars literally a mile long and police were checking ID's to confirm you are a resident of Worcester. I knew I wouldn't make in before closing. Since then, the huge pile of e-trash sitting in my back yard is leaching who-knows-what directly into the watershed. Mike Andre Lehovich wrote:

Yeah, we have something similar in Chelmsford, and the line is always very long. You need to get in line at least 30 minutes before it opens, or forget it. Even at that, you'll be waiting at least an hour. Its a nice idea, I just wish they had more bandwidth.

When you consider the value of your time and the stress of lines, it makes the $15 I paid to drop off 150 pounds of e-waste at www.eastcoastrecycling.com seem cheap. -BR
