Is the difficult economy making Christmas shopping difficult for you?
Cabot Recycling Station has used items for free. Many of the items need cleaning up, but the price is right. Some of the more noteworthy items we have are two small microwave ovens, a toaster oven, a cordless telephone with digital answering machine and an electric can opener.
If you like books we have many to choose from; including children's books, romance novels, popular novels, and classics. There are many assorted pieces of glassware, plates, and knick-knacks. Need to turn in a report? We have many three ring binders. There are two bathroom sinks, one of which is a double sink.
Stop by and take a look on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m. and Saturdays from 8 a.m. till noon.
We also buy nonferrous metals such as aluminum, copper, brass, car batteries, and stainless steel on those days. You can recycle paper, plastic, cardboard, steel and aluminum cans, household batteries, glass bottles and jars, and electronic items at Cabot Recycling Station 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Cabot Recycling Station is located two miles west of Grantsville on Rt. 5 at 2427 W. Little Kanawha Hwy. Look for the big blue building on the river side of the road. For those of you who remember the Cabot Pumping Station, that is the building that houses Cabot Recycling Station. For more information, call 304-354-7786.
