An electronics collection drive is a wonderful way to engage your employees while making a positive impact on the environment and DispoTech would love to help make it successful!

Here are a few ideas we’ve seen work well to encourage participation:

  • Friendly Competition – Create a friendly challenge between departments or teams to see who can collect the most items, with recognition for the winner.
  • Highlight Impact – Share how many pounds of e-waste were diverted from the landfill and what that means for the environment. Employees will immediately see the difference they’re making.
  • Convenience – Set up an easy drop-off location at your workplace with clear signage and a wide collection window to make participation simple.
  • Special Theme – There are earth-friendly anchor events we could use every month of the year, for example:
    • SeptemberNational Cleanup Day (3rd Saturday) & Fall Decluttering
      Pair your drive with community cleanups or a seasonal push to simplify before the holidays.
    • OctoberEnergy Awareness Month & Cybersecurity Awareness Month
      Promote conservation and highlight secure data destruction with e-waste recycling.
    • NovemberAmerica Recycles Day (Nov. 15)
      One of the biggest national recycling observances of the year. Great for a flagship event.
    • DecemberYear-end clean out
      Encourage businesses and employees to recycle before the holidays and “give back, give green” during the season of giving.

Hosting an electronics collection drive doesn’t just clear out clutter—it builds community, boosts employee engagement, and protects our planet.

No matter the season, there’s always a reason to recycle. At DispoTech, we’re here to make it easy and fun.
