Electronics Recycling = Social Responsibility

We offer our clients electronic system solutions that simplify entertainment, ambiance, comfort, and peace of mind.  Many times this involves replacing antiquated or broken electronics, which begs the question: 'what do we do with the left-over pile of black boxes'?  Storing them indefinitely is one option, though not realistic.  Thus, we have realized the need for electronics recycling within our own business as part of the service we offer to our clients - and have worked to offer the same service within our own community....

Over the past three years, our annual electronics recycling drives have drawn huge crowds, with an overwhelming amount of electronics, appliances, computer equipment, etc. collected:

• In 2099, 125 TONS were collected - serving over 1,400 cars in just 7 hours.
• In 2010, 225 TONS were collected - serving over 1,700 cars in the same time frame!
• In 2011, 160 TONS were collected - serving almost 800 cars.
• The past two years combined, have filled 36 tractor trailers full of unwanted items - saved from the landfill.
• We have seen:
  • A woman in a Miata with three push-lawn mowers hanging out of her convertible!
  • A man on a bicycle with a computer stuffed in his backpack.
  • Electronics fried by lightning damage - and those destroyed by two-year olds.
  • Looks of shock and amazement from attendees as they see the piles of electronics grow...
  • Friendships develop and families unite as our wonderful and dedicated volunteers work together to ensure a successful drive.

WITS - or Web Innovations and Technology Services - focuses on more than just recycling electronics... While we commend them for their 0% landfill policy, what truly draws us to WITS is their focus on the community. As the largest non-profit recycler in Missouri, WITS takes in TONS of electronics a year - and refurbishes goods that can be reused by underserved populations and other non-profit organizations. What cannot be reused is appropriately recycled by methods approved by the Department of Natural Resources and the Environmental Protection Agency. Each year:

• 2,000 - 3,000 computers and laptops are donated to churches, veterans, disabled individuals, youth and needy families
• Over 6.5 million pounds of electronics are diverted from landfills - 70% of which is reused!
• WITS hires men and women who have difficulty getting 'traditional' jobs

WITS provides a great service to the people of St. Louis - and to Mother Earth! Thank you for your efforts!
