Precautions to Take Before Donating or Recycling Your Electronics

Upgrade your computer instead of simply replacing it

Format all your personal information from your products before discarding

Take out the batteries from your gadgets before getting rid of them

4. Sell Off Your Outdated Technology

One man’s junk is another man’s treasure as the old saying goes. This can be applied to helping you get rid of your old electronics. You can tap into online sites like craigslist, eBay or even resort to having a garage sale as this will help you get rid of your outdated electronics as well as earning some money. Examples of this are old Nintendo video games which can sell for as high as $40 a piece. Most electronic shops are always ready to buy your old electronics.

3. Donating Your Outdated Technology

Old gadgets that you no longer need can be donated as they may be useful to others. Your old computer may be useful to either an NGO or students. You should ask yourself these 2 questions before disposing of your old electronics:

Is the electronic item working?

Does the computer have any of your personal information?

A lot of organizations and businesses offer electronic donation programs which you can choose from.

2. Visit Civic Institutions

Enquire amongst your government, universities, and schools for any recycling programs they run as a lot of organizations have started assigning a certain day and place for environmentally conscious citizens to come and drop off their e-waste.

1. Give Back to Your Electronic Companies and Drop Off Points

A lot of electronic companies tend to have an exchange policy whereby they take back your old gadgets when you buy a later version, sometimes offering you a discount on your new purchase.

A few recycling companies have set up electronic drop off initiatives along with drop off points for products such as cell phones and tablets after which they are recycled. You can ask your local electronics shops regarding any information about drop off locations.
