On October 3, 2020 Tuff Torq Corporation partnered with JTEKT and Enterprise Oil for the 8th annual BOPAE (Batteries, Oil, Paint, Antifreeze, Electronics) Recycling Event. This year the event collected 42,878 Pounds or 19,449 Kg of household materials that would have otherwise been deposited in the local landfill. The largest category by weight was electronics with more than 20,000 pounds or 9,072 Kg of e-waste recycled. The overall total reflected an increase of 156% over 2019 totals. Over 20 volunteers from the sponsor companies along with members of Keep Morristown-Hamblen Beautiful spent many hours of planning and four hours collecting the materials from 400 local residents who brought their recyclables to the event.
