Appreciation post
621 TONNES. And every kilogram started with someone choosing to do the right thing. 💚
Today we just want to say thank you.
Looking back over the past three years, the support Electronic Cemetery has received from our community, businesses, schools, organisations, municipalities and individuals is pretty incredible.
From 2 September 2023 to today, you have trusted us with:
3,805 drop-offs
♻️ 171,211.4 kg of e-waste
2,160 collections
♻️ 449,877.9 kg of e-waste
That is 5,965 separate drop-offs and collections, representing an incredible:
621,089.3 kg — more than 621 tonnes of e-waste.
Some people arrived with a handful of old cables or a single laptop. Others called us to collect tonnes at a time. Every single one mattered.
Behind these numbers are thousands of decisions to recycle responsibly rather than throw electronic waste away. They represent resources recovered, hazardous materials managed correctly, equipment given a second life where possible, and a lot less e-waste heading where it shouldn't.
To every person who has dropped something off, booked a collection, hosted one of our receptacles, recommended us, supported our campaigns or trusted us with your organisation's e-waste:
Thank you. Truly.
Electronic Cemetery has grown enormously over these past three years, but none of that growth happens without the people who choose to support what we do.
Here's to the next 621 tonnes. 🌱♻️
