“NEW” Recycle My Electronics™
Do you have old, broken, or unused electronics at home? In partnership with the Electronic Products Recycling Association (ERPA)/Recycle My Electronics™, you’ll now find a green e-waste bin inside the entrance of the Town Office at 19 Station Road, Florenceville-Bristol. Drop off your small unwanted devices during regular office hours and help keep e-waste out of Canadian landfills. A large bin is also located on the side of the building which is accessible 24/7. This makes it easy for residents to responsibly recycle their unwanted or end of life electronics. Please refer to “What Can I Recycle?” tab below for details on what electronic devices are accepted in New Brunswick.
The future is your hands. Don’t let it go to waste.™
Why Recycle?
There are so many good reasons for recycling your end-of-life electronics – here are just a few of them.
When you recycle your end-of-life electronics through a Recycle My Electronics™ authorized drop-off point you’re:
- Keeping e-waste out of Canadian landfills.
- Confirming the safe and secure destruction of personal data stored on hardware.
- Recovering resources like gold, silver, copper and palladium so they can be recycled to go back into new products.
- Preventing e-waste from being illegally exported or handled by irresponsible recyclers, decreasing environmental issues for the planet.
- Protecting workers’ health and handlers’ health and safety.
Electronics Products Recycling Association (EPRA)/Recycle My Electronics™ programs manage end-of-life electronics recycling. Once collected, items are sent to an EPRA approved recycling facility for sorting, dismantling, and downstream management. Materials are separated into different streams so they can be re-configured into the manufacturing process.
