How do you responsibly dispose of old electronics?

Let’s first answer the question.

Any electronic device, regardless of its size, is considered e-waste when it expires, becomes nonfunctional or defective, or is replaced by newer technology or devices. These devices cannot be used by consumers. These devices can end up in landfills and polluting our environment. Proper handling is crucial. It is a good idea to use the services of a government-approved ewaste recycler

.

ERI Direct is the answer to your e-waste recycling needs. ERI Direct checks electronic devices for potential roles. Refurbishment. Part recovery. Shredding. The refurbishment is open to electronic devices that are repairable.

Section, devices that are not repairable but can be reused are sent for parts recovery. These can then be sent to responsible parties. Devices that are not repairable or refurbished can be sent for shredding for the recycling of base materials.

At ERI, we track electronic devices from the moment they arrive at an ERI facility to final disposition using our proprietary tracking software, MyTrackTech, to guarantee complete data destruction and peace of mind. When your electronic device arrives at an ERI Facility, it is first registered and assigned a serial number, allowing both you and our team of recycling technicians to track the device through each step of the recycling process – regardless of whether it is slated for refurbishment, parts recycling or the shredder.
