Dealing with outdated items like washing machines, and stoves can feel overwhelming. Not only are these large appliances difficult to move, but you may also be unsure about what to do with them once they're loaded up. Instead of simply discarding them, consider the more sustainable option of recycling it, which not only benefits you, but the environment as well!

E-waste is a growing issue that needs urgent attention, and e-waste recycling is a solution we all need to practice in return. Recycling starts at home, the office, and anywhere that e-waste exists. And where there is e-waste, there is always potential for e-waste recycling. After all, what makes for better team building than helping out the environment a little?

Throwing a community recycling collection day is a great way to encourage those around you to reduce the amount of salvageable scrap that gets thrown into landfills–especially when it comes to clunky pieces of technology that take effort to dispose of properly. 

You can make your community feel good about retiring old IT equipment–as well as make it easy for them–by partnering with Arrow to throw an E-waste recycling event.

Whether you run and office or a household or maybe both, we all have one thing in common – we all create electronic waste.
Appliances, old or outdated computers and cell phones all add up. And all too often they pile up in landfills.

There’s nothing quite like the holidays. The gifts. The lights. Egg nog. Well, maybe not egg nog but we all love the holiday season. Unfortunately, like with anything, all those celebrations, big and small, create waste. From lights and batteries to the electronics you’re about to replace, you’re probably sitting on a pile of stuff that you may or may not know can and should be recycled. We’ve got some ideas on how to keep the good spirits going by recycling.

For years, our economy worked in a linear way. Simply put, good were produced, sold, used and eventually discarded, typically ending up in a landfill.

But as demand has grown along with our reliance on plastics, metals and other materials that don’t easily degrade, landfills, well…became filled. And waste materials made their way into the ocean and created other environmental hazards. We are a consumer culture that buys more clothes and wears them for shorter and shorter durations and buy more and more appliances and technology that lasts or remains relevant for less and less time.
