Depot location in Edmonton is 11404 143th Street, right by the EcoStation.Electronic items collected are inspected and a value is determined based on their reuse value, amount of recoverable materials, be it reusable components, parts, or small amounts of precious metals found on some circuit boards. Your rebate will be a percentage of the recoverable amount.
Tax-deductible receipts are also available for some items from member charities.Give them a call to check over your Ewaste for possible buried treasures with the assurance all other items will be recycled appropriately keeping the highest environmental standards in mind. Several locations scheduled to be opened throughout the country to deal with the growing demand for proper disposal.
