We Are A Certified Electronics Recycler

This may surprise you, but the United States produces the most electronic waste in the world. Each year, around 9.4 million tons of electronic waste is produced, but only 12% of it goes to recycling. The numbers are even higher when you take into account the rest of the world. Collectively, we produce around 20 to 50 million tons of electronic waste.

What can we do to help with proper waste disposal of electronic devices? Send them to a certified electronics recycling company like ours in Hughesville PA! A company that is R2v3 certified, like KVS Computers, ensures that the recycling of electronics is done in a responsible manner that is safe for the environment, even in the situation of COVID-19. Without being officially certified, electronics recycling may harm, not help the environment. The R2v3 certification requires recyclers to uphold the highest standards.

Anything from old phones, laptops, desktops, computer monitors, tablets, printers and much more, we’ve got you covered!

Why is Recycling Electronic Devices Important?

Most electronic devices are made up of many different materials, so recycling electronic devices is not as simple as recycling paper or plastics. But the effort that goes into recycling electronic devices is worth it. For example, if one million cell phones were recycled properly through collection programs, it would produce 35,274 pounds of copper, 772 pounds of silver, 75 pounds of gold and 33 pounds of palladium. These are all valuable metals that can then be turned into things such as jewelery, watches, surgical instruments, and much more!

Certified electronics recycling companies in Lycoming County, like KVS Computers, will collect, refurbish and resell electronics to give them a second life and to keep them out of the waste stream.

If electronics are improperly disposed of, it could impact the environment in a negative manner. The main concern is that electronic devices take years to decompose and as they do, they release chemicals into the soil and groundwater.

Importance of Recycling Electronic Devices...

Similarly, when not recycled, they will either end up in landfills or the ocean. If they end up in landfills, they will be incinerated. The fumes caused by burning plastic, metal, and glass produce dangerous emissions. These emissions can harm both animals and humans and they contribute to climate change. If the items end up in the ocean, it could gravely damage the marine ecosystem.

Instead of throwing out your retired desktops, laptops or tablets bring such products to KVS Computers in Hughesville, PA and we can provide support with the better handling and recycling of your unwanted devices in a cost-efficient manner. Recycling your electronics with a certified electronics recycler is a terrific way to go green, protect your data and do your part in helping the environment.
