With Earth Day coming up on April 22, the Electronics Recycling Association has partnered with the Discovery Centre in Halifax and the Alderney Landing Community Cultural Centre in Dartmouth to collect and recycle unwanted, unused, or gently used electronics.
In press releases sent out on Monday, the organization announced it would be present at the Discovery Centre for Enviro Quest 2026 on April 18, starting at 9 am, collecting electronics that will either be refurbished for use by non-profits and charities or responsibly recycled.
From April 16 to 23, the ERA is also hosting an Earth Day Electronics Collection Week at the Alderney community centre, inviting residents, businesses and fellow organizations to dispose of their unwanted technology for refurbishing or recycling.
The ERA will also be in other locations within the city, including:
- Sunnyside Mall in Bedford on April 10 for electronics recycling collection.
- Pinkies Thrift (partnering with Prescott Group) in Halifax on April 22 for a recycling event.
- Halifax Central Library on April 29 for a recycling event.
The Electronic Recycling Association is a Canadian non-profit dedicated to reducing electronic waste. For more information on what they do and how you can help, visit their website at www.era.ca.
