Compassionate Renewal of Our Vital Resources

Community E-drop Events

WHY?

Electronic waste is harmful to our environment. When put in landfills, e-waste can leak harmful toxins into our soil and water. You can help make a difference!

WHO?

Comprenew Environmental® is a Grand Rapids-based nonprofit electronics recycler. Comprenew’s mission is to inspire our community to live and work in a sustainable manner. We are offering you a convenient way to do your part by recycling your electronics at free community "e-drop" events in the West Michigan area.
