When Hurricane Milton swept through St. Petersburg, the devastation was immense—not only from structural damage but from the sudden surge of discarded electronics. The storm left behind piles of broken computers, water-damaged phones, televisions, and other electronic devices that needed proper disposal.
Without responsible recycling practices, this surge of e-waste posed a significant environmental threat. Toxic materials from these devices, such as lead, mercury, and cadmium, can leach into the soil and water, harming local ecosystems and communities.
