As the amount of electronic waste generated by individuals and businesses continues to grow, creative and effective solutions for managing e-waste are becoming more and more important for the health of our communities and environment.  Recycling electronic waste is a costly, but necessary activity.  And, depending on the activities of the Michigan Legislature in the coming years, e-waste recycling may become a required activity for all consumers.  To ensure that the Western Upper Peninsula Electronics Recycling Program is sustainable in the years to come, we are asking program participants to share in the cost of recycling.  Below are the established fee schedules for participation in our program.
