General Information about Electronics
What is e-waste?
Electronic waste, also called e-waste, are electrical or electronic materials that have reached the useful end of their lifecycle or have been discarded by their owners. E-waste includes any equipment that has an electrical source such as a power socket or battery.
The electronic waste that we produce can be grouped into three main categories:
- small equipment like vacuum cleaners and toasters,
- large equipment such as washing machines, (not accepted at our HHW)
- electronic and communication technology like televisions; computers; cellphones.
When you bring your old, end-of-life electronics to EPRA-authorized locations, you’re helping to:
- Keep old electronics out of landfills
- Prevent them from being illegally exported or handled by irresponsible recyclers
- And recover and recycle valuable resources that can be put back into the manufacturing supply chain
It’s impossible to imagine a world today without electronics. Together, we can make sure it’s also impossible to imagine a world where piles of old electronics are sitting in landfills or harming our environment.
Using and enjoying electronics today, also means responsibly recycling them for a cleaner tomorrow.
ALWAYS REMEMBER TO CLEAR YOUR COMPUTERS, CELL PHONES, GAMING DEVICES AND ELECTRONICS OF ALL CONFIDENTIAL OR PERSONAL INFORMATION, REFER TO THE OWNERS MANUAL FOR INSTRUCTIONS
