Schedule an E-Waste Day for Efficient Computer Recycling
E-waste is not accepted in your regular household or business trash. Instead, you must make special arrangements for electronics to be recycled. Scheduling an E-waste day is a great way to unload your unwanted computers and electronics, and it benefits the environment.
What Happens When You Schedule an E-Waste Event?
An E-Waste Day is an event you want to ‘celebrate’ with the entire community. This one-day event can be hosted by a homeowner, business or organization and invites others in the area to dispose of electronic waste. At these events, a few things will happen:
- A date is picked (usually in the spring or fall) on a Saturday from 9am to 2pm. This gives everyone the time they need to gather their items and drop them off. Signage is placed so that recyclers know where to go.
- A site is picked, usually in a parking lot near town centers or well-traveled roads.
- Staff and volunteers will unload computers for recycling and electronic waste into trucks.
- Volunteers are encouraged and they can even be members of your organization or neighborhood.
- At the end of the E-waste day, the electronics and computers are collected and properly recycled in accordance with all E-waste laws and regulations for the area. Personal information is protected and removed from any devices (such as computers or cellphones) before disposal.
