Electronics Reycling. Did you know that you can recycle your household electronics AT NO CHARGE? MN state law does not allow disposal of TV's and computers in the garbage because they contain toxic materials like lead and mercury. This hazardous material is safe when the consumer uses the product, but unsafe when disposed of improperly. Minnesota residents can now recycle their computers, TV's and other electronics for free at many participating recycling locations, including the Dakota County Eco-site located in Eagan - 3365 South Highway 149 (Wednesdays, 9 a.m.-8 p.m.)
