Does 2trg have a Zero Landfill and/or Zero Export of hazardous waste policies?
Yes, we have both! The US EPA and state and federal governments are more closely tracking the disposal practices of companies. Donation or employee purchase options are becoming less attractive alternatives because the liability for environmental hazards may fall back on the company with penalties applied against all involved parties. With our Zero Landfill policy, 99% of materials and products entrusted to 2trg for recycling are either refurbished, harvested for reuse or resell, or turned into usable raw materials to make other products. 2trg’s Zero Export policy helps protect your organization by ensuring that your technology waste is not illegally exported as unprocessed equipment with hazardous and toxic materials.
