International E-Waste Day sheds light on ‘invisible’ electronic waste. This refers to those items you probably don’t even realise you can recycle. It includes things like smoke detectors, electronic toys, e-cigarettes and even cables. Even that broken remote control you’ve got in a drawer could be recycled.

International E-Waste Day​ is an annual awareness day established by the WEEE Forum and its members. It takes place every year on the 14th October and aims to highlight the growing issue of electronic waste and promote responsible e-waste management.
