Clark County residents will be able to dispose of block foam and old electronics during a free collection event from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday at Clark College, 1933 Fort Vancouver Way.

The event will be held in the Yellow No. 1 parking lot at the college, on the west side of Fort Vancouver Way.

Empower Up, a Vancouver-based nonprofit organization, will collect computers and other allowed electronic devices. The organization prefers equipment no more than five years old for re-use; however, nonfunctioning and obsolete equipment also will be accepted. Televisions, computer monitors or microwave ovens will not be accepted. (For a list of free e-waste disposal sites, go to RecyclingA-Z.com.)

Block foam can be any color, but it must be clean, and bagged or boxed. Only Washington-licensed cars may participate.
