E-Waste Removal
In the USA e-waste is the fastest growing sector of all waste materials. Because the working life of electronic products is becoming shorter, with the latest models tempting buyers, the disposal of old electronics needs to be addressed. Because electronics are manufactured using hazardous materials such as heavy metals, flame retardants, and plastics, irresponsibly dumped e-waste poses a public health risk.

Tips for disposing of electronics.
Most electronic items, even if they are old and obsolete, can be recycled or reconditioned without having to present a threat to the environment. But the truth is that very few of these goods are disposed of in this way. Most are dumped irresponsibly into the landfill but hopefully this is changing as people become more aware of the negative effect that these items have on our environment.
Frequently it is assumed that they are only scrap and would be of no use to anyone. It applies not only to computers, but also printers, old fax machines, scanners, hard drives, and monitors. But on the contrary, anything electronic can be taken apart for spares or working parts and has a value to someone.
