The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) is proud to be a member of the Ottawa Board of Trade (OBOT), strengthening our commitment to responsible electronics recycling, IT asset disposition (ITAD), and technology reuse throughout Ottawa and Eastern Ontario.
By partnering with the Ottawa Board of Trade, ERA is connecting with local businesses, government organizations, and community leaders to promote sustainable technology management while helping bridge the digital divide.
Supporting Ottawa Businesses with Secure IT Asset Disposition
Organizations regularly upgrade computers, laptops, servers, smartphones, and other electronic devices. Rather than allowing these valuable resources to become electronic waste, ERA provides secure and environmentally responsible solutions for retired IT equipment.
ERA offers:
- Secure IT asset disposition (ITAD)
- Certified data destruction
- Electronics recycling
- Computer refurbishment and reuse
- Corporate technology donation programs
Whenever possible, reusable devices are refurbished and donated to registered charities, schools, non-profit organizations, and community groups that need access to reliable technology.
Turning Retired Technology into Community Impact
Every device donated to ERA has the potential to create a lasting impact.
Refurbished computers help students access online learning, job seekers build new careers, families stay connected, and community organizations expand the services they provide. By extending the life of technology, organizations can reduce electronic waste while making a meaningful social contribution.
Since 2004, ERA has donated thousands of refurbished computers across Canada and supported international technology initiatives that improve digital access in underserved communities.
Building Stronger Partnerships Through the Ottawa Board of Trade
The Ottawa Board of Trade brings together organizations that are committed to innovation, economic growth, and community leadership.
As an OBOT member, ERA looks forward to collaborating with fellow members, supporting local sustainability initiatives, and helping businesses develop responsible solutions for managing retired technology.
Together, we can reduce e-waste, promote the circular economy, and ensure that more technology reaches the people and organizations that need it most.
