What You CAN Put in the E-Waste Bins

​These receptacles are intended for small electronic and electrical items, including:

• Cell phones and accessories
• Cables, chargers, and adapters
• Keyboards, mice, and small peripherals
• Small household electronics
• Routers, modems, and remotes
• Hard drives and small IT components

If it plugs in, runs on batteries, or once did – it likely qualifies.

What You CANNOT Put in the Bins
To protect people, the environment, and the recycling process, the following are strictly prohibited:

• ❌ General household waste
• ❌ Food or organic waste
• ❌ Liquids of any kind
• ❌ Hazardous waste (batteries, chemicals, medical waste, fluorescent tubes)
• ❌ Large electronic items that do not fit into the bin

Incorrect use contaminates the recycling stream and may result in bins being removed.

Large Items? We’ve Got You Covered
If your item does not fit into the receptacle, do not force it in or leave it next to the bin.
Instead, schedule a free e-waste collection via our online collection form.

Why Responsible E-Waste Recycling Matters

By using our receptacles, you help:

• Prevent environmental contamination
• Reduce landfill pressure
• Support ethical recycling and data security
• Contribute to South Africa’s EPR objectives

Security & Compliance
All collected e-waste is:

• Handled by trained personnel
• Transported securely
• Processed in line with environmental regulations
• Recycled through compliant downstream partners

Where required, certificates of safe disposal are available.
