People with extra electronics laying around got the chance to get rid of them for free.

State Senator Joe Robach teamed up with Time Warner Cable, Sunnking, Waste Management and Monroe County for a electronics recycling event Saturday.

It was held at Monroe County's ecopark in Rochester.

People dropped off old computers, printers, phones, tv's and more, and they didn't even have to get out of the car.

"In addition to the drive that we sponsored and did and notified people on, this ecopark here, a joint venture between Monroe County and Waste Management, is up and running full time to try to have a place where people can get rid of all their things in an environmentally sound way," said Senator Joe Robach.

The ecopark accepts a variety of electronics to recycle for free.

Time Warner Cable, which participated in the event, is the parent company of YNN.
