Retailer adds six stores to national program.

 

New Zealand’s Warehouse Stationery has launched a free e-waste recycling program in partnership with TechCollect NZ, providing consumers and small businesses with a way to dispose of their e-waste.

 

The roll-out of the programme, which is a part of parent company The Warehouse Group’s e-waste recycling expansion, will initially be available at six participating Warehouse Stationery stores. 

 

More than 52 tonnes of e-waste has been recycled through the programme which was launched by The Warehouse Group and TechCollect NZ at 16 Noel Leeming stores in January last year.

 

Michael Dudley, Senior Policy Manager, TechCollect NZ, says they are delighted to be working with Warehouse Stationery and The Warehouse Group to tackle the challenge of responsible e-waste management and forge the way towards Aotearoa’s circular e-waste future.

 

“The addition of  Warehouse Stationery stores to our national network means that Kiwis have even greater access to free recycling options for their unwanted and end-of-life ICT equipment, “he said.
