Dispose Your CRT Monitors at Mississauga Electronics Recycling Solutions

We all want to replace our old electronic gadgets with the new ones. The challenge here

remains in how to dispose the old electronic goods as it is hard to recycle. Many nations are

taking this problem very seriously as this method of getting rid of the old electronic goods is

not at all environmental friendly. Mississauga Electronics Recycling Service is a great

initiative by COM2 Recycling Solutions to recycle used CRT monitors or glasses with a

number of collection centers in and around the state of Illinois in the United States of

America.

A major chunk of this electronic waste are the CRT monitors or glasses as with the arrival of

flat screens like plasma, LED, LCD, etc., these are now obsolete. More and more people are

replacing their CRT monitors or television with the new flat ones for mainly aesthetic

reasons. If you are also thinking of to discard your used CRT monitors, then you must know

that it is best to dispose them to the Mississauga Electronic Recycling Solutions for the

obvious reason that it is not environment friendly to simply dump it in a landfill site.

Why CRT monitors should not be dumped in a landfill site?

It has been found that CRTs contain a significant higher level of lead and cadmium beside

other toxic materials. Lead can pass on into the groundwater and can contaminate the same

over the years. Moreover, breathing in lead dust can be very injurious for human health.

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has already acknowledged this

fact and has included these discarded CRT monitors as hazardous household waste. Thus,

this if left in open to all weather conditions at a landfill site, it can pose a threat to our

environment.

It is commendable that many companies have come forward to offer recycling solutions for

the CRT monitors and Mississauga Electronics Recycling Solutions are one among them with

a good track record of successfully collecting the discarded CRT monitors from their

numerous collection centers.
