Do you want to dispose of your outdated cell phone? Do you have an old TV that is no longer working? It is not a secret that electronics do not last forever. So, what can you do after they break down? You recycle them.

Whether it’s an old home phone, a used laptop, or a flat screen TV, we only have one simple guideline: if your e-scrap consists of more than 70% metal or has a cord connected to it, we can recycle it! This encompasses a wide range of appliances.

Electronic recycling, which involves the collection, sorting, refurbishment, reuse, or disassembly of electronic devices, plays a crucial role in preventing hazardous materials from entering our landfills. Our top priority is to promote reuse of your electronic items instead of simple disposal whenever possible!

Statistics on Electronics Recycling

Electronics Recycling prevents the following...

Did you know that over 50 million tons of electronics are generated annually on a global scale? About 40 million tons of the estimated 50 million tons of electronic items are either incinerated, dumped in landfills, or handled unsafely. 2 That is equivalent to throwing out 800 laptops every second. 3

3.2 million pounds of electronic items were recycled by DTG Recycle in 2022

DTG Recycle has successfully recycled an astounding 3.2 million pounds of electronic items in 2022. As we successfully recycled multiple tons of electronics, our dedication to sustainable methods and ethical electronics recycling reached new heights.

DTG Recycle has made significant steps in electronics recycling during the last 6 years

  • We recycled 1.5 million pounds of electronics in 2017 and 1.7 million pounds in 2018.
  • Over 1.8 million pounds of electronic items were recycled by the end of 2019, and in 2020, we recycled about 2.1 million pounds of electronic items.
  • We broke prior records by recycling 2.6 million pounds of electronics the subsequent year, in 2021.

The Importance of Responsible e-Cycling

It is extremely crucial to learn the significance and benefits of electronics recycling. EOL electronic devices, also known as e-scrap, encompass old computer equipment, stereos, televisions, and mobile phones. Instead of just a simple landfill drop-off, many of these items can be refurbished or recycled, yet a substantial amount still ends up in landfills. Only 20% of global electronics undergo proper recycling, while the remaining 80% is often incinerated or disposed of in landfills. 1 The World Economic Forum highlights the alarming fact that, “Many thousands of tons also find their way around the world to be pulled apart by hand or burned by the world’s poorest workers. This crude form of urban mining has consequences for people’s wellbeing and creates untold pollution.”
