E-waste is fast becoming one of WA’s biggest challenges, especially with the introduction of the 2024 WA landfill ban. The constant push for newer devices—phones, laptops, and tech—is fueling an ever-growing mountain of discarded electronics.
Unfortunately, many of these old devices are thrown away improperly, adding to environmental hazards and safety risks.

Total Green Recycling is leading the charge in secure e-waste management. From councils to businesses, our community-driven solutions ensure the compliant recycling of your e-waste while also, driving meaningful environmental change.
Together, we can transform e-waste into opportunities for a cleaner tomorrow.

Do you have a question?
Don't hesitate to ask us
Our team is here to help with all your e-waste requirements, and we have answered your commonly asked.
What is e-waste?
E-waste, or electronic waste, refers to discarded electronic devices and equipment, including everything from old computers and phones to TVs and household appliances. It encompasses any item with an electrical plug, battery, or circuit board that is no longer in use or has reached the end of its life.
Why the upsurge in e-waste?
Rapid technological advancements and the increasing consumer demand for new devices largely drive the rise in e-waste. As electronics become obsolete more quickly, people are upgrading their gadgets more frequently, leading to a growing volume of discarded items. Additionally, the culture of planned obsolescence, where devices are designed to have shorter lifespans, also contributes to the upsurge in e-waste.
What types of e-waste does Total Green Recycling accept?
We accept a wide range of e-waste items, including circuit boards, computer monitors, servers, laptops, mobile phones, televisions and more. Some items, such as air conditioners and fridges, require prior approval. For a full list of acceptable and non-acceptable items, please refer to our Acceptable Items Schedule.
How do I schedule a pickup for my e-waste?
Scheduling a pickup with Total Green Recycling is easy. Simply contact us on 08) 9258 6009 or email us on [email protected]. Our team will work with you to arrange a convenient time and ensure that your e-waste is collected safely and securely.
What does the landfill ban state?
The 2024 landfill ban in Western Australia prohibits the recycling of e-waste in landfills, requiring all electronic waste to be processed through accredited recycling facilities. The aim is to reduce the environmental impact of hazardous materials found in electronics and to recover valuable materials through proper recycling methods. This ban is part of a broader push toward sustainable waste management in the state.
What happens to my data when I recycle electronics?
At Total Green Recycling, we ensure the complete and secure destruction of various devices by shredding hard drives. Each hard drive goes through our entire shredding process, including the secondary shredder and hammer mill, which guarantees the device is fully destroyed and data is irretrievable, providing total security and peace of mind.
Are there any charges for recycling non-scheme items?
Yes, certain non-scheme items such as microwaves, dishwashers, and Hi-Fi systems may incur additional charges. It’s important to check the Acceptable Items Schedule for a breakdown of these items. Our team is happy to provide more information when you schedule your e-waste drop-off or collection.
Where can I drop off my e-waste if I’m an individual?
