The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) is proud to partner with Lewis Estates Community League to collect e-waste in the Edmonton area.
Everyone has one. That box, drawer, or shopping bag in a closet filled with old cell phones, obsolete chargers, broken tablets, and defunct MP3 players. It’s our personal piles of electronic waste.
Recycling electronic waste has become an increasingly important environmental issue as the useful life of electronic devices becomes shorter and shorter and the list of electronic gadgets we use becomes longer and longer.
Get rid of your personal pile of e-waste this Saturday and rest assured any personal information will be securely destroyed by ERA. We will then work to refurbish the collected devices so that we can donate computers, laptops, tablets, etc to charitable organizations in need.
Location: West Meadows Baptist Church 9333 199 St NW, Edmonton

The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) is a non-profit organization founded in 2004 to address the growing problem of e-waste and the increasing ‘digital divide’. For over fifteen years, ERA has offered simple solutions to help individuals and organizations prevent operational equipment from premature destruction. With a focus on recovery, refurbishment and reuse, ERA continuously supplies charitable groups with donated IT equipment while securely managing the retiring IT assets of organizations and individuals across Canada. We believe that reuse before recycling is critical in managing the waste created by computer hardware, and by offering industry-leading data destruction for all equipment we receive, we have securely repurposed hundreds of tons of equipment. Because not everything ERA receives can be reasonably repurposed, we have partnered with certified recycling organizations to process equipment that has reached the end of its productive life.
