The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) is partnering with Blandford Community Centre for a community electronics recycling and fundraising event.
The event will take place alongside the Community Centre’s breakfast and will give residents, families, and local businesses an easy way to responsibly recycle unwanted electronics while supporting a local fundraising initiative.
Event Details
Date: Saturday, October 17, 2026
Time: 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM
Location: Blandford Community Centre
Address: 5446 Highway 329, Blandford, Nova Scotia
The Community Centre has a large open parking area, making it easy for visitors to stop by and drop off unwanted electronics.
Recycle Electronics and Support the Community
This event is part of ERA’s Moolah for Macros fundraising program.
The program helps eligible organizations raise funds by collecting unwanted electronics from their communities. Families, residents, employees, and local businesses can all participate.
In addition, the program helps keep electronics out of landfills.
ERA reviews the collected equipment after the event. Whenever possible, our team refurbishes devices for reuse. We may also use working parts from other equipment.
As a result, reusable technology can support charities, schools, non-profits, and other organizations that need equipment.
What Can You Bring?
Community members can bring a range of unwanted electronics, including:
- Laptops
- Desktop computers
- Tablets
- Cell phones and smartphones
- Computer equipment and peripherals
- Other unwanted electronic devices
For the Moolah for Macros fundraising program, eligible items include intact laptops, desktops, tablets, and cell phones.
So, if you have unused technology at home or at work, this is a great opportunity to clear some space.
ERA and Blandford Community Centre Working Together
ERA will support Blandford Community Centre throughout the event.
Our team will coordinate the electronics collection and provide the required collection equipment. ERA will also manage the collected electronics after the event.
Most importantly, there is no cost to Blandford Community Centre for hosting the event.
Together, ERA and Blandford Community Centre aim to make electronics recycling simple and accessible for the local community.
At the same time, the event will promote reuse and responsible electronics management.
