Why is E-Waste Recycling important?

With the constant production of new electronics and gadgets, comes a greater need for e-waste recycling. Discarded electronics totaled about 2,000,000 tons in 2007, and only about 15-20% was actually recycled - and this number continues to grow each year. This problem raises many health and environmental concerns, especially in landfills where toxins can leak into the soil and ground water. Recycling electronics properly not only helps prevent this problem, but it also helps reduce pollution and the need for more natural resources when producing new products.

How does it work?

Whole e-waste is shredded down to pieces which are less than 2 inches in diameter. They are then separated through a series of devices all connected by conveyor belts. The materials extracted include Iron, Copper, Aluminum, Plastic, Glass, and Precious Metal Mix. This process ensures 100% data destruction and every client is protected with a data destruction guarantee. We recycle old computers for you or your business so the data never ends up in the wrong hands.

Here is a list of some of the items we can take:

So gather all your old electronic items and do the right thing and recycle them!  Contact us today to schedule your next e-waste drop-off. 805.845.6600
