    How to dispose of microwave?

    Anyone know how to dispose of the microwave (it is broken) that does not require schlepping out to the dump? I cannot lift it due to disability and would have to have someone take it somewhere for me, but where can it go locally? Your help is appreciated, thanks!

    P.S. If you happen to be going to the dump or somewhere else suitable and would like to do me a huge favor, please be in touch 707-479-0408.

    Electronic waste collection sites are routinely set up in the Safeway parking lot as well as at area schools. I'd contact Safeway or the school dist. to find out when the next one might be.

    You can call who ever you have your garbage service with and arrange for a pickup.
