This event should have been better communicated. No where was it stated that there was a limit on how much they’d take total. No one else will take these stupid things. I have a feeling there will be a lot of abandoned tvs on the country roads if there isn’t an option opened up. The county (and state) is making it very difficult to be responsible.

Our tvs are goin on the street!

We were there at 9am

Did they take your tv or had you not made it to the front yet by the time they were filled?

No never made it to dresser and it said open at 9 we were there at nine

Now we’re hearing they ‘reached their quota’ by at least 10:15. Mark Pietrowski Jr. may have an explanation +/or alternative…

Very disappointed…got there at 10:15 and the Police told me the event was closed.

What happened we were turned away after an hour in line

Oh no!! We haven’t heard anything about this till now. Hopefully someone else with info. can chime in here…

Turned away by 10:15, poor signage and traffic control. I hope more thought goes into planning the next one.
