Do you have old, unwanted TVs, monitors and mobile phones that you no longer want or need? If you are a City of Sydney resident, you can recycle them for free by dropping them off at our quarterly e-waste recycling day. No booking is required. What's the problem with E-waste? E-waste is electronic waste and can contain hazardous materials such as lead and mercury which when sent to landfill can leach into waterways and cause irreparable environmental and human harm. In Australia, E-waste is growing at three times the rate of ordinary household waste. Australians generate 140,000 tonnes of e-waste each year and it is estimated that there are already 168 million items of e-waste in landfill. Drop off your old, unwanted TVs, monitors and mobile phones at our FREE E-waste recycling day for City of Sydney residents. Bring along: ID and proof of address
To help Australia keep e-waste out of landfill, the City supports a national scheme for managing electronic waste - where producers are responsible for recycling products at the end of their useful life. Get on board and join the Total Environment Centre's campaign at www.reborn.org.au.
