Nowadays people are living a busy lifestyle balancing life with works and family and don't seem to investigate and search about how to recycle E-Waste, therefore here is a easy 3 step guideline demonstrating how to recycle your e-waste.
 
Recycle
     
  • Being a good recycler requires you to recycle goods and also consider what you are buying while shopping to make  if the products have recycling capabilities.
  • Purchase products made from recycled materials or with recyclable or reusable packaging. For instances, plastic packaging are marked by codes of 1-3 and these plastic packages are commonly recycled in most municipalities, however several councils now also accept codes 4-7 to find out check with your local council.
  • By avoiding packaging made of more than one material that can't be separated or put in your waste recycling bin. e.g. plastic laminate on paper.

 
Reuse
  • Reuse your plastic bags and look for products that can be reused many times.
  • Choose  durable and reusable items rather than disposable ones.
  • Carry your own water bottle or reuse water bottles.
Reduce
  • Buy products with minimal packaging and recycle and packaging where possible.
  • Bulk- buy products with a long shelf life.  
  • Avoid individually wrapped items.
  • Choose the concentrated or refillable form of products like juices and cleaning products.
  • Use a basket, backpack, box or reusable shopping bag instead of plastic bags. Keep then handy in the boot of your car.
