Pierce County and City of Tacoma residents now have local options to properly recycle their unwanted electronics for a small fee. The City of Tacoma and Pierce County have joined the Take it Back Network, a regional consortium of businesses committed to recycling electronics in a safe, efficient and cost-effective manner. The Solid Waste Divisions of Pierce County and the City of Tacoma strongly encourage residents to recycle their electronics instead of throwing them in the garbage. Properly recycling and reusing electronics, as well as other products containing toxic or hazardous materials, helps reduce the amount of harmful contaminants that enter the environment. |
For information about recycling, donating or disposing of dozens of other items, visit Pierce County's Recycling Directory. |
Take it Back Network businesses agree to handle all materials domestically or in developed countries, and they will also provide customers with documentation (upon request) about how and where their materials were recycled. | ||||||
