 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Christine Frias DATE: December 8, 2009 PHONE: (626) 458-3565 Newly redesigned LACoMAX website provides new home for unwanted items and saves money on holiday treasures Web service provides residents with a convenient way to give away or find used or surplus items that would otherwise be disposed of ALHAMBRA, CA (Tuesday, December 8, 2009) – In these tough economic times, Los Angeles County’s FREE materials exchange Web site (www.LACoMAX.com) can be a lifesaver. The site provides residents and businesses with a means to search for goods that otherwise may end up in the landfill. “This is a free service that enables individuals, businesses, nonprofit organizations, or government agencies, to search online for goods or post their unneeded items,” stated Pat Proano, Assistant Deputy Director of the County of Los Angeles Department of Public Works. “LACoMAX is also a fantastic resource for people looking to get rid of some of their holiday clutter and perhaps find items that are in good condition that could be a great gift!” By posting unneeded but still usable items to the site, people are helping to conserve landfill space. “We are inundated with so many things during the holidays that we simply don’t need and at the same time, we are often searching for that one special item that we can’t find in the stores. LACoMAX satisfies both needs,” stated Mr. Proano. LACoMAX is very user-friendly. People post goods that range from used computers, building materials and furniture, to paint for your house or boxes for moving. Benefits for the environment:
