Universal Waste/e-Waste

The improper disposal of electronics, batteries, and light bulbs has a significant impact on both the environment and public health. At Rock River Environmental Solutions, we ensure your security, reduce your potential liability, and help to maintain viable recycling commodities by delivering your universal wastes only to reputable and permitted end markets.

We send your universal waste to one of only three companies in all North America that perform the entire recycling process from start to finish on a recyclable commodity and can provide you with recycling certificates.

In addition, we can work right along with you to train your employees, maintain the necessary containers and equipment, and launch a recycling program that will help your company meet environmental goals, comply with existing and proposed legislation, and save money.
