A brief description of steps taken to ensure that e-waste is recycled responsibly, workers’ basic safety is protected, and environmental standards are met:
E-waste collection and packing is handled by EdCC Recycling Coordinator. Computer hard drives are erased before computers are recycled. E-waste is packed and shipped in wooden pallets. Our recycling vendor is a non-profit organization, "1 Green Planet." 1 Green Planet is a sustainable ZERO waste ZERO landfill recycling operation. All recycling is processed entirely in the state of Washington. No processing work or material is shipped overseas.
