Electronics Recycling Various parts of popular electronic devices may contain dangerous heavy metals, including lead, silver, barium, cadmium, chromium and mercury. CVWMA's electronics recycling program helps citizens properly dispose of unwanted equipment instead of landfilling them where they could cause soil, water or air contamination. Click here for more info. Equipment collected in this program will be demanufactured for recycling. Some components may be refurbished for continued use.
