Host an E-waste Drive

WasteBeginner

Do you have used electronics sitting around taking up valuable office space? Make sure they get recycled responsibly through a certified e-waste recycler.

What to Do

Host an e-waste drive using a certified e-waste recycler to ensure your company’s old electronic equipment is being recycled properly. Encourage your colleagues to bring in their used electronic equipment from home to prevent it from going where it doesn’t belong.

How Will This Action Create Change?

Hosting an e-waste drive can help you:

  • Reduce your environmental impact by managing electronics responsibly.
  • Track and report on your office’s e-waste diversion rates.
  • Educate employees about the benefits of recovering materials at a product’s end-of-life stage.

When you’ve completed this action, share your results with us for the opportunity to be featured in Living Planet @ Work communications.
