Recycle Electronics Properly California


EDR SoCal is authorized by the California Integrated Waste Management Board ((CIWMB)# 111233) as a qualified Collector/Recycler (dual entity) of Covered Electronic Waste (CEW) which include Cathode Ray Tubes (CRT's) and the designated Universal Waste Electronic Devices (UWED).

Upon receiving electronic surplus, we weigh, count, segregate based on the material they contain and assigned a Lot ID to your material. That lot number follows the product throughout the disassembly process (in-house) allowing product to be tracked to its final residual status 'scrap' material. The residual scrap material is then shipped to a final destination facility which further processes it down to its value commodity such as copper, aluminum, gold, etc, which is then sold on the open market.

CRT glass or 'cullet' is shipped to glass manufacturers, smelters or secondary smelters who in turn utilize certain materials as a fluxing agent and others to make new picture tubes. Our process prevents hazardous material from ending up in landfills.

*Please note: We do not use any outside sources, keeping your material within the EDR owned and operated family, allowing us complete control over all e-waste from your door to ours. This is very important to the environmentally conscious and also releases you from any liability.

Edr-ewaste offers free pickup of surplus computers. Phone: 562-802-0202
