While it may be impossible to stop the manufacturing, trade, and use of electronics, handling electronic equipment properly can help reduce its environmental impact.

While proper recycling is essential, many people and businesses are still unsure how to do it correctly. After all, we believe that informed people make better decisions, that’s why today, we’re sharing the do’s and don’ts of electronics recycling.

Do:

1. •Always erase data before recycling devices.
2. •Look for certified recyclers or ITAD (IT Asset Disposition) providers to ensure responsible disposal.
3. •Remove and dispose of batteries separately due to fire risks.
4. •If the equipment is in good condition, consider selling, donating, or repurposing it.

Don’t:

1. •Dispose of electronics in regular trash, they often contain toxic materials that must be managed properly.
2. •Tamper with electronics, as it can be dangerous and reduce recyclability.
3. •Ignore regulations. Businesses must comply with data destruction and e-waste disposal laws.
