Where To Dispose Of Old Printers In Singapore

Update 11 Feb 2020: New City Square Mall E-waste Recycling website… See below.

I have an old Canon IP4870 inkjet printer. Where can I dispose of it in Singapore?

Still prints. Prints with smudges. Bought a new printer. It’s now occupying space.

I can simply dump it in the big trash bin downstairs, but are there any other ways?

1. RENEW (REcycling the Nation’s Electronic Waste). A collaborative consumer-driven environmental effort between three partners – StarHub, DHL, and TES. You can recycle almost any electronic product in the RENEW bins. However, all recycled items must be able to fit through the bin’s 470mm x 120mm slot. Here is the list of RENEW bin sites… https://www.starhub.com/about-us/corporate-sustainability/recycling-nations-electronic-waste.html
   Oops! It seems my printer is taller than the 120mm high slot.
2. M1 E-waste Drop-Off Point Programme. The M1 Drop-off Point Programme is a joint effort between M1 Limited & Virogreen (Singapore) Pte Ltd to promote responsible disposal of e-waste. Here are the locations… https://www.nea.gov.sg/docs/default-source/default-document-library/m1-e-waste-drop-off-point-programme—-bin-locations.pdf
   Ok. The bins slots are bigger here. Can consider.
3. City Square Mall E-waste Recycling Programme. Bring your electronic waste (or e-waste) to our L2 Customer Service Counter for recycling… https://www.citysquaremall.com.sg/events-promotions/e-waste-recycling-programme/ Ok. No bins. Just bring it to their service counter.

There’s more. Check out NEA’s e-waste management website… https://www.nea.gov.sg/our-services/waste-management/3r-programmes-and-resources/e-waste-management/where-to-recycle-e-waste

Feel free to comment.

See you in the next one.
