How to Recycle Electronics in Dallas, TX

Why Electronic Recycling in Dallas Matters

Every year, Dallas residents dispose of thousands of tons of electronics from old TVs to broken laptops and outdated cell phones. But tossing e-waste into the trash can be dangerous and even illegal. Many electronic devices contain hazardous materials like lead, mercury, and cadmium, which can harm the environment and contaminate soil and groundwater.

That’s why United Electronic Recycling makes it easy to recycle your old electronics safely, and at low or no cost.
