As two of the non-contiguous states in the U.S., Hawaii and Alaska share unique challenges when it comes to recycling e-waste. 

Team members from Backhaul Alaska, a program that "coordinates the hauling of hazardous waste out of rural Alaska communities," recently stopped by for a visit of our recycling facility. The members received an in-depth tour of our e-recycling system and processing facility.

Jason shared valuable insight gleaned from both experience and knowledge on the unique challenges and strategies necessary to be successful and resourceful in e-recycling with the hopes that it will enable Backhaul Alaska to return home with some useful business tips to assist them with their local program.
