Electronic discards are one of the fastest growing segments of our nation’s waste stream. E-Waste is defined as any electronic equipment that has reached its ‘end-of-life,’ or ‘end-of-usage,’ whether in working or non-working condition.

E-Waste includes: Television sets, Computer Monitors, Computers, Laptops, Printers, Copiers, Scanners, Fax Machines, Servers, Main Frame Units, Networking Equipment, Systems, Printed Circuit Boards, Telephones and Cellular Phones, Stereos, DVD players and other consumer electronics.

56% of American households have functional e-products that they will no longer use. Less than 10% of e-waste is currently being properly dismantled or recycled. 70% of heavy metals, 40% of lead and mercury contents found in today’s landfills come from e-waste.

Help Us dispose of E-Waste the right way by diverting it from the landfills to a proper recycling process!
