For over 50 years, we have done our best to make sure that the people of the Greater Boston area have every opportunity to recycle as much of their waste material as possible. That’s why, in addition to commercial recycling, green waste processing, and recycling pickup services, we offer e-waste recycling services. Our e-waste recycling services are available for residential and commercial customers. If you have a business, we offer free waste audits to help you determine which of your electronics can be recycled. We can also work with you to implement an ongoing recycling program that suits the specific needs of your business. Our trucks and team members handle all the e-waste pickup and hauling. We only work with the most professional and responsible e-waste recycling facilities to make sure that any data left on your electronic devices is destroyed before the recycling process begins.
To understand how important e-waste recycling is, you must first know what qualifies as e-waste. E-waste is defined as any electronic device that can be disposed of. This includes TVs, cell phones, printers, laptops, computers, external hard drives, disc drives, monitors, radio equipment, speakers, electric motors, gaming consoles, remote controls, tablets, fax machines, telephones, any chargeable device, appliances, and more. Basically, if it can be plugged in or charged with a battery, it can be e-waste. These types of electronic devices have materials inside of them like chromium, lead, and cadmium that are hazardous to both humans and the environment. That’s why it’s extremely important that this waste material is properly recycled so it doesn’t end up in a landfill where it can become a detriment to the environment.
So, how do you properly dispose of electronic waste? Due to the hazardous nature of these devices once they are discarded, there are federal and state laws that you must abide by. The best way to dispose of these products is to work with a local, licensed recycling company like ours. We will ensure all your e-waste is properly recycled or disposed of in accordance with EPA and RCRA regulations. You can also check with your local municipal waste authority to find out how you can dispose of your e-waste safely and legally.
We know that it can be a hassle making sure your e-waste gets diverted to the right waste management facility. However, there are distinct benefits to using our e-waste services:
