Office Recycling Solutions practices a “zero-landfill” policy.  We do not merely ship product to third world countries for de-manufacturing.  ORS offers a Total Electronics Recycling solution!  We want to be your “one stop partner” for all of your recycling needs!

Following is the process we follow in our recycling program:

• CRT Monitors and TVs -   ORS has a sub-contract arrangement with the Electronic Manufacturers Recycling Management Group (MRM) and other major TV and CRT monitor manufacturers to manage their State-wide collection programs.  These companies work with us to develop and manage their collection programs for proper disposal of their items.  All items are recycled in a glass-to-glass facility in New England and nothing is sent to any Third World County’s illegally.  ORS is the only company in Rhode Island with this contract.
• LCD Monitors - Good LCD’s are sold throughout the US, Canada and Overseas.  Non-Working LCD’s are repaired in either New Jersey or Canada.
• Computers -  PC’s are taken apart and separated into:
  • Circuit Boards
  •  Hard Drives
  • CD/Floppies
  • Power Supplies
  • Steel Cases
  • Circuit Boards - (Which include Motherboards, Memory, CPU’s)
  • High Grade Circuit Boards are sent to a precious metals refining facility in Canada.   
• Hard Drives - Circuit Boards are removed and the rest is shredded for Aluminum Content
• Power Supplies - Are sent to Copper Refiners for shredding and metal separation.
• Steel Cases - Are Sent to Local Scrap Yards
• Cartridges – Are either used in our Cartridge World remanufacturing process or incinerated in a New England licensed, permitted waste-to-energy facility
• Printers - All HP and Good Condition Lexmark printers are sold to a printer refurb company.  All obsolete and physically damaged printers are sent to our Canadian partner facility for destruction and sorted into different materials such as Steel, Aluminum and Plastics.  The metals are sold to local scrap yards, and the Plastics are baled and sent out to plastic recycling firms that regrind the plastic for reuse purposes.
• Re-Marketing – All remaining, marketable items are refurbished and sold on our online store.
