Electronics Recycling and Electronic Waste

The modern digital world is creating a growing amount of electronic waste, also referred to as e-waste. All electronic waste can be reused or broken down, and the materials recycled. Republic Services provides reliable, safe and cost-effective electronic waste collection and recycling as part of our commitment to protecting the planet.Electronic devices contain lead and mercury, which if released into the environment, can create health hazards. For example, the cathode ray tubes in older TVs and computers typically contain about 4 to 7 pounds of lead. To protect our environment, it is important to ensure that electronic waste is recycled properly. 

Universal Waste

Universal waste is hazardous waste that is common or “universal” to homes and businesses and is considered household hazardous waste. Universal waste—or u-waste—can be managed safely and cost-effectively with Republic Services.

• Residential Universal Waste Solutions: Universal waste offerings vary by location and may include periodic scheduled pickups or community collection sites. Find your local service details for applicable regulations, schedules and charges in your area.
• Business, Commercial and Industrial Solutions: Universal waste should never be disposed of as part of your regular solid waste collection. Republic Services can arrange special pickups, or provide a list of universal waste collection sites near you, to address occasional universal waste disposal for your business. If your site requires regular universal waste disposal, a Republic Services Waste Stream Advisor can work with you to design a solution to meet your specific need.
