E-Waste recycling matters now more than ever.
E-waste recycling matters now more than ever. With technology advancing faster than ever before, old devices pile up, posing serious risks to our environment and health. Every smartphone, computer, and battery contains valuable materials that can be recovered and reused instead of ending up in landfills. By recycling e-waste, you’re not just protecting the planet, you’re conserving resources, reducing pollution, and supporting a sustainable future. Join the movement today and turn yesterday’s electronics into tomorrow’s solutions.
E-waste is the world’s fastest-growing waste stream, with over 50 million tons generated globally each year.
Only 17% of global e-waste is properly recycled—most ends up polluting landfills or being improperly dismantled.
We recycle all mercury-based lamps — from linear fluorescents and CFLs to HID, HPS, and beyond.
Discarded electronics often travel overseas, where they’re taken apart by hand without proper safety or environmental protections.
Your old phone contains gold! One million recycled phones can recover about 75 pounds of gold.
Electronic waste covers a broad range of items, including computers, monitors, printers, and other electronic devices. All equipment should remain intact—no broken screens or disassembled parts. Keep storage containers indoors and ensure they are securely placed on pallets. Any de-manufacturing or component-level disassembly may require proper state licensing.
