The city of Kent’s annual Summer Recycling Collection Event and Recycling Products Sale will run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, June 6 at the Kent Phoenix Academy parking lot, 11000 SE 264th St.

Besides bringing items not easily recycled at the curb, Kent residents can purchase rain barrels, composters and worm composting bins while supplies last.

Appliances, refrigerators and freezers, toilets, sinks and mattresses will be accepted along with concrete, rocks, asphalt and brick. These items should be placed on a tarp, plastic sheet or in buckets to speed up unloading.

Confidential Date Destruction will provide free shredding of up to three file-sized boxes of documents per vehicle.

Please note, a few items require cash-only fees. For a complete list of accepted items and fees, visit KentRecycles.com.

This event is funded by grants from the state Department of Ecology, King County Solid Waste Division and the Local Hazardous Waste Management Program.
