The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) is a non-profit organization founded in 2004 to address the growing problem of electronic waste and the growing \u201cdigital divide\u201d. For more than a decade, ERA has offered simple solutions to help individuals and organizations prevent operational equipment from prematurely destroying itself. By focusing on recovery, refurbishment and reuse, ERA continually provides charitable organizations with computer equipment while securely managing the IT assets of organizations and individuals across Canada.<\/p>\n
We believe that reuse before recycling is critical in managing the waste created by computer equipment, and by offering the industry-leading data destruction for all the equipment we receive, we have safely reoriented hundreds of tons of equipment.<\/p>\n
Because not everything ERA receives can be reasonably redirected, we have partnered with certified recycling organizations to treat equipment that has reached the end of its productive life. This past year alone, ERA has donated more than 1500 computers to community members in need. With deposits across Canada, ERA offers a great way to safely recycle electronic equipment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","atbdp_listing_types":[],"at_biz_dir-category":[63,64,61,65,72],"at_biz_dir-location":[60],"at_biz_dir-tags":[],"class_list":["post-3055","at_biz_dir","type-at_biz_dir","status-publish","hentry","at_biz_dir-category-industrial-and-commercial","at_biz_dir-category-municipal-and-institutional","at_biz_dir-category-technological-companies-field","at_biz_dir-category-technological-companies-sector","at_biz_dir-category-wastes-management","at_biz_dir-location-quebec-en"],"yoast_head":"\n
