Got Some New Technology Over the Holidays? Here’s How to Responsibly Get Rid of the Old

Got Some New Technology Over the Holidays? Here’s How to Responsibly Get Rid of the Old

The holidays are over and some of the best gifts are ones that replace our dead and dying electronics with shiny new ones. Then comes the matter of discarding your old devices. In today’s blog, we will discuss what you should and shouldn’t do when looking to get rid of your old devices. 

Why Recycling Your Old Tech Matters

Modern devices are packed with materials that can harm the environment if not disposed of properly. For example, lithium batteries, found in most gadgets today, can explode or leak dangerous chemicals if thrown away carelessly. Even small electronic items, like singing greeting cards, need special handling to avoid causing harm.

A simple rule to follow: don’t toss it in the trash if it's electronic.

What to Do with Your Old Devices

Check What You Have

Before throwing anything out, review your old tech. Could it still be useful? Consider repairing and donating items like laptops, tablets, or phones to schools, charities, or people in need. This helps others, keeps your technology organized, and reduces waste.

Stay Organized

Not every device needs to be replaced. Keep a record of your tech inventory to know what’s still in good shape and what needs replacing. This will help you make smarter decisions about upgrades and maintenance.

Recycle Responsibly

Most electronics, from old phones to smart toys, can be recycled. Many manufacturers offer recycling programs, and local governments often partner with facilities that accept electronic waste. These services can safely process your gadgets and keep harmful materials out of the environment.

Need Help with Business Tech Recycling?

If you’re managing technology for a business, proper disposal is even more important. Our team at TS3 Technologies can guide you through recycling your old equipment and setting up new tools to meet your goals for the year ahead.
