Expo Activities and Vendors
Holiday Light Exchange
Holland BPW's annual Holiday Light Exchange is a part of this comprehensive Home Energy Expo. Trade in one or more of your old incandescent holiday string lights and receive up to 2 new LED strings while supplies last. Incandescent lights will be recycled with Padnos.
Electric Lawn Tools
Try out electric lawn tools for yourself before you buy! Test electric lawn tools courtesy of Visser Ace Hardware and Westcore Neighbors Toolshare at the Expo including leaf blowers and snowblowers. If you’re ready to buy you can purchase your tool directly through Ace on the spot. Recycle your old gas-powered tool and receive an instant rebate off your purchase price! Please drain all fluids from your gas-powered tool before recycling.
Recycling a gas tool? Please park in the Civic Center lot off of 7th St and enter the building through the North entrance. Volunteers will be available to help transport items.
