The City of Richardson Public Services Department and the Richardson Police Department have teamed up to help fight crime and recycle at the same time. Instead of putting your new computer box or flat screen TV box out for pickup (and advertising your treasures to thieves), you may drop off the boxes for recycling Dec. 21-Jan. 4 at the following temporary locations (flattened cardboard items ONLY):
- Custer Park, 700 W. Renner Rd. (near the tennis courts)
- Recycle Center, 102 N. Cottonwood Dr.
- 1500 Apollo Rd. (near the Huffhines Tennis Center courts)
- Breckinridge Park, 5200 Park Vista Rd. (near the baseball complex)
If you prefer to throw the boxes away, place them inside a black trash bag and set out with trash.
