What is Electronics Recycling?
First initiated by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), e-cycle facilities donate, repurpose, and shred a variety of electronics. E-cycling encourages people to reduce, reuse and recycle instead of disposing of electronic items in landfills. This keeps toxic metals out of the soil, water, and air while extending the life cycle of items that can be difficult or costly to produce.
Our recycling process ensures your items are securely wiped of data and repaired, sold, or donated for reuse, or have their parts separated for repurposing before shredding any remaining components. A special electrical current is used to sort non-ferrous metals by density, while precious metals are dissolved in acid, sorted, and smelted into ingots. We then separate and sell any residual glass or plastic. In most cases, this enables us to recycle the entire device, meaning nothing ends up in the landfill.

Benefits of E-Recycling
Recycling electronic waste protects the environment in many ways: it keeps harmful products out of landfills, it reduces our dependence on mining for raw materials, and it saves energy. It keeps our soil, water, and air cleaner. Electronic recycling also protects you. Computers and cell phones may contain important private data that you wouldn’t want in the wrong hands.
