Most local councils in New Zealand will not allow you to dispose of e-waste in your curbside rubbish bin. It is recommended you include all domestic e-waste in your inorganic collection, donate it to a community op shop, or recycle it via an e-waste recycler such as Echo. Sending old or unwated technology to landfill has a negative impact on the surrounding environment, and means recoverable materials within those devices cannot be recovered.

At Echo we use a technical approach, first identifying as much equipment as possible for re-use. These items are data sanitised, tested and refurbished before being circulated back within the community. Equipment that cannot be reused is prepared, dismantled and processed for recycling using state-of-the-art technology at our sites in Wellington and Auckland.

Data security is our top priority. We follow strict data destruction protocols to erase all personal information from devices before they are refurbished or recycled. Our processes are compliant with the highest levels of international data erasure, ensuring your information is securely handled and completely destroyed. If the item you are dropping off contains a detachable memory card, USB stick etc, please remove this from your device and hand that to one of our team directly. This has its own method of disposal which will ensure your data, photos etc are safely destroyed.

IT asset recovery is the process of safely and efficiently reclaiming and reprocessing electronic equipment and hardware, such as computers, servers, and mobile devices, when they reach the end of their useful life. The goal is to extract maximum value from these assets through resale, refurbishment, recycling, or proper disposal, ensuring environmental responsibility and data security. This process not only mitigates environmental impact by diverting waste from landfills but also provides financial returns or cost savings to organisations.

While a significant portion of IT equipment can be refurbished or recycled, the feasibility depends on several factors, including the age, condition, and type of the equipment, as well as market demand for certain materials or components. Refurbishing involves repairing and updating devices for resale or donation, extending their useful life. Recycling involves breaking down equipment into raw materials (like metals, plastics, and glass) that can be reused in manufacturing new products. However, some items may be too obsolete or damaged to refurbish or recycle economically and must be disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner, adhering to local regulations and environmental standards. Our experienced Commercial Team can work with you to assess your assets to determine the most appropriate and sustainable course of action.

Carbon-positive means that beyond neutralising our carbon footprint, we actively remove more carbon from the atmosphere than we generate. It is our response to climate change and our reduction of GHG emissions.

GHG stands for Greenhouse Gas, which includes carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), and other gases that trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, contributing to climate change. E-waste recycling helps reduce GHG emissions by preventing waste from decomposing in landfills and reducing the need for raw material extraction.

Echo measures direct and indirect emissions - categorised into Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions. Direct emissions (Scope 1) originate from sources owned or controlled by Echo, such as emissions from company-owned vehicles. Indirect emissions (Scope 2) are associated with the generation of electricity, heat, or cooling that Echo consumes. Other indirect emissions (Scope 3) includes all other indirect emissions that occur throughout Echo’s value chain. These may come from suppliers, production processes, transportation, business travel, and more.

The GHG Protocol (Green House Gas Protocol) is a widely recognised international standard for measuring and managing greenhouse gas emissions. It was developed by the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) with the aim of establishing a unified framework to accurately and consistently account for and report these emissions. The GHG Protocol aims to help organisations understand and manage their environmental impact by providing a standardised and transparent methodology for measuring, reporting and verifying emissions of CO2.

Carbon positivity goes beyond being carbon neutral—it means we remove more carbon from the atmosphere than we produce. Carbon-positive businesses contribute to global sustainability efforts by restoring ecosystems, reducing pollution, and promoting circular economies.

Currently Echo has developed various sustainable initiatives and practices to reduce both its carbon footprint and ecological footprint, thus reducing the negative environmental impacts generated by the electronic waste sector and supports its clients in the recovery of electronic and electrical materials through urban mining, preventing these products from ending up in landfills where they will have little degradation and releasing toxic components into the ecosystem.

As a carbon-positive company, choosing Echo’s services helps our clients and their companies reduce their carbon footprint, divert waste from landfills, and contribute to a more sustainable future. Whether you're a business or an individual, recycling with us ensures your e-waste is responsibly handled with minimal environmental impact.
