How to dispose of Electronic Wastes

[CarterMat]

We are moving our office to a building and have decided to get rid of all the old electronics that we doesn't use anymore. There are a number of desktops, printers and other devices that are lying idle. We are thinking of different ways to dispose this, including renting recycling containers. Is there any effective way that you guys can suggest?

Re: Getting rid of electronic wastes

Since you term it as Electronics waste., there perhaps are some regulations concerning electrical and electronics waste disposal in the zone where you belong. Kindly check on it and identify such sources who are authorized to scientifically handle and dispose E-Waste and deal with them...

A lot of charities will take electronic equipment (computers, monitors, tv's, printers, etc..) for a fee or donation and then dispose of it (properly) for you. You could contact the town/city hall for your location and ask for their recommendation.
