E-waste

E-waste and You

You can help to keep electronic products out of landfills by:

  1. Encouraging vendors and brand owners to subscribe to a take-back and recycling program for the electronic products they sell or make.
  2. Upgrading or repairing electronic products where feasible instead of replacing them with new ones.
  3. Donating your old equipment to a family member, friend or charitable organization.
  4. Checking with your municipality to learn about reuse, recycling and disposal options for electronics in your area.
