The term ‘ewaste’ encompasses all old electrical appliances either in a state of disrepair or simply obsolete. This includes everything from fridges and microwaves to mobile phones and computers. The correct disposal of e-waste is of vital importance to being able to achieve a sustainable future.
Electronic waste, or e-waste, as everyone likes to call it, is anything that you don’t have use for that has a plug, battery, or cord. Unlike other types of rubbish, you typically cannot put e-waste in your bin. Most items are potentially hazardous, while others still have value and certainly do not belong in a landfill. Unfortunately, in WA, e-waste is still legal to be sent to landfills. It is why e-recycling rates are not as high as in the country’s eastern states, where e-waste disposal to landfills is banned.

How Does E-Waste Work?
The process is dependent on the exact item to be recycled. If we’re dealing with electronic devices, they always contain valuable components suitable for reclamation. And did you know that more than 90% of materials in technological items like computers and mobiles can easily be reused or recycled? They often come with lead, copper, gold, and silver, which are all reusable materials.
After picking up your e-waste, we’ll head to our recycling centre to process and separate the elements. Efficient separation is the key to the success of e-recycling. Usually, e-waste is shredded and metals, taking apart valuable metals and other pieces.
Magnets are often utilised to separate steel and iron, which are later prepared as recycled steel, copper, circuit boards, and aluminium.
