E-waste – or electronic waste – is growing 3 times faster than any other waste stream. E-waste contains potentially hazardous and valuable materials, which don‘t belong in landfill.
To help protect our environment and recover the material, the Victorian Government has banned all e-waste from landfill. That means e-waste can’t go in any household bin.
Help recycle e-waste so it can be reused to make new technology in the future.
