ERA Joins Manitoba Chambers of Commerce to Advance Electronics Recycling and Reuse

By electronic recycling association September 15, 2026

The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) is proud to announce that we are now a member of the Manitoba Chambers of Commerce, strengthening our connection with businesses and communities throughout Manitoba.

Since 2004, ERA has been helping businesses, government organizations, schools, and individuals responsibly manage unwanted electronics while reducing electronic waste and supporting communities in need. Our reuse-first approach focuses on extending the life of technology whenever possible before responsibly recycling equipment that can no longer be used.

Connecting With Manitoba Businesses

Becoming a member of the Manitoba Chambers of Commerce gives ERA an opportunity to build stronger relationships with businesses across the province and raise awareness about responsible IT asset management.

When organizations replace laptops, computers, smartphones, servers, and other technology, there are several important factors to consider beyond simply recycling the equipment. Protecting sensitive information, maintaining proper records, reducing environmental impact, and identifying opportunities for reuse should all be part of the process.

ERA helps organizations manage their retired technology through services such as:

  • Electronics reuse and responsible recycling
  • Secure data wiping and data destruction
  • Hard drive shredding
  • Electronics pickup and collection services
  • Serial number tracking and reporting
  • Refurbishment and technology donation programs
  • Workplace and community electronics collection events

Turning Unwanted Technology Into Community Impact

Whenever possible, ERA refurbishes suitable equipment so it can be donated to charities, nonprofits, schools, Indigenous communities, and other organizations in need.

This reuse-first approach helps keep working electronics in circulation longer while supporting greater access to technology. It also provides businesses with an opportunity to incorporate responsible electronics management into their environmental and community initiatives.

Looking Forward to Connecting Across Manitoba

ERA is excited to be part of the Manitoba Chambers of Commerce and looks forward to connecting with fellow members, participating in community initiatives, and developing partnerships that support sustainability and digital inclusion throughout the province.

Whether your organization is upgrading its computers, looking for secure data destruction services, or interested in hosting an electronics collection event, responsible management of retired technology can make a meaningful difference.

Together, Manitoba businesses can help reduce electronic waste, protect sensitive data, and give technology a second life in the community.
