Electronic Waste

Electronic waste (e-waste) is any electronic equipment in your home that no longer works and cannot be repaired. E-waste is not collected through curbside pickup and should not be thrown in the garbage because these items contain hazardous materials and often have recyclable parts.

Examples of e-waste include:

• Televisions
• Computers and monitors
• VCRs
• Electronic calculators
• Telephones
• Digital cameras
• Computer accessories
• Modems
• Video game consoles
• Scanners
• Photocopiers
• Radios and stereos
• Hard drives
• Printers
