Collection Events & E-Waste Recycling marketing Tools

Collection events are a great way to:

• help to divert electronic waste from landfill and ensure responsible recycling;
• raise funds for local 'green' initiatives and community organizations such as youth groups, sports teams and other worthy causes;
• raise visibility of community-minded businesses and organizations that are willing to donate their time and facility to host an event.

When you partner with OES or an OES-approved collector, a number of resources and services are available to promote and execute a successful electronic waste collection event. For more details on logistics, transportation and packaging materials and to register a listing on the DoWhatYouCan website, email events@ontarioelectronicstewardship.ca.   Promotion and educational materials (e.g., posters, brochures) can be downloaded from the links below or quantities of hard copies are available on request, also at events@ontarioelectronicstewardship.ca.
