With
the knowledge that these items are not accepted by most community
curbside recycling services, CDwest.ca will recycle these
materials for you as a part of our existing in-house recycling
program.
"It’s a simple yet effective program.” explains our company’s Vice
President Bruce Durnie, “I’m not aware of any community-based
recycling programs that accept CDs, DVDs and their plastic cases,
so what are people doing when they want to get rid of them? If you
throw them into the garbage they just end up in your local
land-fill. To prevent that from happening you can now send
those materials to us and we’ll recycle them through our
existing in-house recycling program and channels.”
Recycle your unwanted
CDs:
-
Put
your unwanted CDs and DVDs in a cardboard box, clearly mark “for
recycling” on the box and either drop the box off or have it
delivered to our shipping/receiving bay door. We will add your
discs to our own disc recycling system and then we’ll recycle
the box too.
-
If
you are shipping the goods the responsibility for paying for the
shipment is yours – we will not accept C.O.D. or ‘collect’
shipments.
-
If
you are concerned about sensitive or personal data content on
your unwanted discs it is recommended that you score or damage
the data-side of the disc in a way that prevents the information
from being accessed.
Recycle your
unwanted CD Cases:
-
Put
your unwanted CD and DVD cases in a cardboard box, clearly mark
“for recycling” on the box and either drop the box off or have
it delivered to our shipping/receiving bay door. We’ll add your
unwanted cases to our own recycling system and then we will
recycle the box too.
-
If
you are shipping the goods to CDwest.ca, the responsibility for
paying for the shipment is yours as we will not accept C.O.D. or
‘collect’ shipments.
-
Please ensure that all paper inserts and discs have been removed
from the cases. The paper inserts can be recycled in your
regular community-based program.
-
If
you are sending CD and DVD cases as well as discs, please ensure
that you supply the discs in a separate box.
As a
CD replication and CD duplication company, CDwest.ca provides
factory-direct disc manufacturing services along with a wide range
of eco-friendly print and packaging solutions for their clients
throughout Canada.
Durnie continues, “As a company that specializes in disc
replication and duplication we recognize our responsibility to be
a good global citizen so we’ve been putting a strong emphasis on
utilizing environmentally-friendly equipment, materials and
processes for quite some time. We don’t just talk-the-talk when it
comes to being environmentally responsible so we’re always looking
for new ways to enhance what we’ve already put in place and this
CD recycling program is a good example of our efforts to make a
difference.”
