Starting from January 1, 2019, it became impermissible for consumers to discard specific types of electronic equipment in landfills, waste-to-energy facilities, in the regular trash, or for curbside trash pickup. In lieu of these methods, consumers now possess several legal avenues for appropriately managing e-waste. You can entrust your e-waste to a certified e-waste handler. Alternatively, you can deliver your e-waste to an authorized collection site. There’s also the option to send it back via a designated program. Additionally, manufacturers are obligated to accept their own branded equipment, along with one piece of electronic waste from any manufacturer, provided by a consumer when purchasing new electronic equipment. Nevertheless, this necessitates consumers to physically transport their electronics to a specific location or arrange for shipment to the manufacturer.
