Description

We celebrate International E-Waste Day 2022 to focus on reuse, repair, and recycling of small electronics. Our purpose is to repurpose. Due to their small size, items such as cell phones, electric toothbrushes, toasters, and cameras are often discarded incorrectly, and they make up a significant proportion of the eight percent of all e-waste that is thrown in general waste bins which are subsequently landfilled or incinerated. This means the important raw materials they contain cannot be extracted and are lost. On top of this, small appliances are easily stored in cupboards, garages, basements and attics and quickly forgotten about. In Europe alone, up to 1.4 kg of e-waste per inhabitant ends up in the general waste bin every year. That's a lot of E-waste! Clear off your shelves, your closets, that corner of your garage you have been meaning to get to. Free Recyling Drop Off's October 14th 9 AM - 5 PM (Event Excludes CRTs & BOX TVs)
