Collections, and the waste accepted at each event, can be found on our [events calendar](https://retrofitcompanies-22042135.hs-sites-na2.com/environmental-events).   ## Why E-Waste Collections Are Important E-waste contains valuable materials like gold, copper, and aluminum, but it also includes hazardous substances such as lead and mercury. When improperly disposed of, these toxins can seep into soil and water, harming ecosystems and human health. Recycling e-waste helps: Protect the environment by reducing pollution and conserving natural resources. Recover valuable materials that can be reused in new products. Reduce landfill waste, which is already at critical levels globally. Retrofit Environmental's city and county collections offer a safe, efficient method of properly disposing of these items.   [![Collection Events Button](https://retrofitcompanies.com/hs-fs/hubfs/WEBSITE_2025/BUTTONS/Collection%20Events%20Button.png?width=250&height=104&name=Collection%20Events%20Button.png)](https://retrofitcompanies-22042135.hs-sites-na2.com/environmental-events)   ### Learn More about [Retrofit Environmental's](https://retrofitcompanies-22042135.hs-sites-na2.com/environmental) E-Waste Recycling Services by clicking the image below. ### [![E-Waste End of Life Collage](https://retrofitcompanies.com/hs-fs/hubfs/WEBSITE_2025/Env%20Electronics%20Recycling/E-Waste%20End%20of%20Life%20Collage.png?width=340&height=285&name=E-Waste%20End%20of%20Life%20Collage.png)](https://retrofitcompanies-22042135.hs-sites-na2.com/environmental_electronics-recycling)   ## RELATED ITEMS [![Scheduled Collection Events](https://retrofitcompanies.com/hubfs/ENV%20Scheduled%20Events%20FEATURED.png) ](https://retrofitcompanies.com/scheduled-collection-events) [![ Electronic recycling near me, E-Waste Recycling Near Me](https://retrofitcompanies.com/hubfs/ENV%20E-Waste%20FEATURED%20(1).png) ](https://retrofitcompanies.com/environmental_electronics-recycling) [![News & Current Events Retrofit Enironmental](https://retrofitcompanies.com/hubfs/ENV%20NEWS%20Featured%20Image.png) ](https://retrofitcompanies.com/environmental-news) [ABOUT](https://retrofitcompanies.com/about-trc) [CONTACT](https://retrofitcompanies.com/trc-corporate-contact-us) [CAREERS](https://retrofitcompanies.com/working-at-trc) [NEWS](https://retrofitcompanies.com/environmental-news) Retrofit Environmental is a division of The Retrofit Companies, Inc. and provides regulated waste disposal services to businesses. ![The Retrofit Companies](https://retrofitcompanies.com/hubfs/Logos/Retrofit-Environmental-Logo_white-stacked-text.png) [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/TheRetrofitCo) [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/2340383/) [Twitter](https://twitter.com/theretrofitco) #### CORPORATE: SOUTHERN MN 1010 Hoffman Drive Suite A Owatonna, MN 55060 #### TWIN CITIES METRO 2960 Yorkton Blvd. Little Canada, MN 55117 [recycle@retrofitcompanies.com](mailto:recycle@retrofitcompanies.com) [507-455-2181](tel:+15074552181) ![](https://ws.zoominfo.com/pixel/60da1f2c3a80440015da6fa9) ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Wendy Fry", "url" : "https://retrofitcompanies.com/blog/author/wendy-fry" }, "dateModified" : "2026-03-05T23:53:58.812Z", "datePublished" : "2025-11-21T12:14:06.000Z", "headline" : "E-Waste Collection Events", "image" : [ "https://retrofitcompanies.com/hubfs/WEBSITE_2025/Blog/E-Waste%20Collection%20Events.png" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://retrofitcompanies.com/blog/recycling-collection-events", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://retrofitcompanies.com/hubfs/The%20Retrofit%20Companies%20Logo_grey%20stacked%20text%20(1).png" }, "name" : "The Retrofit Companies, Inc." } } ```
