Electronics Recycling in Bremerton: A Complete Guide
Old computers, TVs, and phones contain toxic materials that don't belong in the trash. Here's how to handle e-waste recycling in Bremerton and Kitsap County.
What Counts as E-Waste
Any electronic device that you no longer use is considered e-waste:
- TVs and monitors
- Desktop computers, laptops, and tablets
- Cell phones and smartphones
- Printers, scanners, and fax machines
- Game consoles and peripherals
- Cables, chargers, and accessories
- Stereos and audio equipment
- Smart home devices
Why E-Waste Recycling Matters
Electronics contain hazardous materials including lead, mercury, cadmium, and flame retardants. When these end up in landfills, they can leach into soil and groundwater.
On the flip side, electronics also contain valuable materials — copper, gold, silver, and rare earth elements — that can be recovered through proper recycling.
