Washington & Nebraska Pass Right to Repair Legislation

The Right to Repair movement continues to spread, with all 50 states having at least introduced repair legislation. Nebraska and Washington recently signed e-scrap bills into law, which gave Washington residents the right to repair consumer electronics and Nebraskans an EPR program for batteries. The right to repair has been a longstanding battle between consumers and third-party repair shops and major OEMs, but continues to make significant progress, even amongst OEMs who initially lobbied against the movement.

Circular Economy & ITAD: A Smarter E-Waste Solution

As the key to e-waste reduction, circularity follows a circular economic model, which aims to eliminate waste by reducing the amount of waste created, reusing what can be reused, and recycling the rest. The world operates in a linear economy, where goods and products are purchased, used, and discarded. This results in excess waste, which can be detrimental to the environment, especially electronic waste. IT asset disposition (ITAD) providers collect used, broken, or retired IT assets and ensure they are disposed of responsibly, closing the loop on a circular economy.

ITAD: Implement Sustainability with Data Center Services

Data centers are the central hub for information for any enterprise, but decommissioning can be detrimental to the environment if disposed of irresponsibly. Because of their size, data centers are not often viewed like other IT assets such as phones, laptops, printers, scanners, tablets, and desktops, and are often not considered in disposition plans. However, in a digital era, data centers are abundant and pose a significant environmental threat, as large amounts of e-waste are available. Partnering with an ITAD provider for data center services will help implement sustainability in the workplace.

Compliance can be an annoyance or simply another box to check, depending on how it is perceived. Compliance can often be the difference between a smooth-running business and a lawsuit, especially in the ITAD industry. IT asset disposition with an ITAD partner includes multiple facets such as data erasure and legal hold monitoring that involve handling retired IT assets containing sensitive data, making compliance a requirement.

Colorado Supports Proper E-waste Disposal with Battery Bill

Batteries have been a longstanding issue in the waste industry, and many states are now passing extended producer responsibility (EPR) bills to enforce proper battery disposal. Colorado recently added a battery EPR to its state law that sets overall recycling targets of at least 60 percent for rechargeable batteries and 70 percent for primary batteries. It allows for multiple producer responsibility organizations (PROs). Multiple organizations backed the bill alongside Boulder County, including Recycle Colorado, National Waste and Recycling Association Rocky Mountain Chapter, and Green Latinos.

Sustainable E-Waste Solutions with Asset Reuse

Sustainability is driving the business world, but the primary setback is the significant amount of global electronic waste that continues to accumulate alongside rapid technological advances.

E-waste is now a global crisis, but ITAD enterprises offer sustainable e-waste solutions that maximize the value of used assets by keeping them in circulation.
