Where to recycle your old electronics

Instead of throwing out your old electronics, Do What You Can and recycle it. The Niagara Region's Waste Electrical and Electronics Equipment (WEEE) recycling program recycles old electronics from Region residents for no charge.

    The WEEE Program

    The newly formed, industry-funded WEEE recycling program allows the Niagara Region to expand their electronics recycling program to include more drop-off depots. The depots only accept products from residents - businesses may not use this program.

    As of the end of July 2009, the Region had collected more than 115 tonnes of electronics.

    "Do What You Can"*

    Do What You Can is a website designed to help you find places to drop-off hazardous and special wastes and outdated electronics that can't be put in your Blue Box and should not go in the garbage.

    Visit Do What You Can for a list of local retailers that accept old electronics for recycling. If you have electronics still in good working order - donate it for reuse.
