| I was just making calls last week trying to locate an ecycling program here in Marion County. Such a waste to fill the local landfill with items or their components that can be reutilized. Thanks for the tip! |

| My pleasure. Pass along the word about this blog, and if you hear about something, post it here and I will try to get it some publicity. |

My husband wants to know how much he can bring at one time -- he and the kids are computer junkies! In other words, is there a limit?
I thank you for this notice so that we can have a cleaner house on the 15th! ;) |

| I just called Marion County Solid Waste Department, and they said that as long as you can show proof that you are a resident and not a business, there isn't a limit. If you are a business, there is another number you can call (see above) Thanks for asking! |
