How to Recycle Electronics: What Actually Happens to Them
Recycling is not one step, it is four, and each is logged. We weigh and load at your site under manifest. Units are dismantled to component level at our centre so anything reusable is identified before shredding. Components are segregated manually into ferrous, non-ferrous, plastic, PCB and hazardous categories. What remains goes through material refining and extraction; residue goes to approved disposal, never to landfill.
Why Use a Government Authorized E-Waste Recycler
An ordinary scrap dealer resells your material to a middleman and keeps no record of where it went. As a licensed handler we recover the material ourselves, which is why we can pay a better rate — and why we can give you a recycling certificate. If you are a business, that certificate is what your auditor asks for under the E-Waste Management Rules. If you are a household, it is the difference between your old laptop being processed safely and being burned in an open yard.

■ Common questions
E-Waste Recycling in Chennai — your questions answered
Where can I recycle old electronics in Chennai?
At either Sree E-Waste collection centre — Perungudi (Rajiv Gandhi Salai / OMR) or Velachery — or from your own address. Call +91 78455 61376 and we will collect free of charge anywhere in the Chennai metro, usually within 24–48 hours. Both centres accept household and office electronics with no minimum quantity for drop-off.
How do I recycle electronics safely instead of throwing them away?
Never put electronics in household rubbish — they contain lead, mercury and flame retardants that leach once they reach a landfill, and batteries can ignite in a bin lorry. Hand them to a government authorized handler instead. We are licensed to process e-waste, so your items are dismantled, segregated and refined through approved channels, and you receive documentation confirming it.
Is there an e-waste recycling centre near me in Chennai?
We run two, and between them we cover the whole metro: Perungudi on OMR serves the south and IT corridor — Sholinganallur, Taramani, Adyar, Guindy — while Velachery covers the centre and west including T. Nagar, Anna Nagar, Porur and Ambattur. For Ambattur, Tambaram, Chromepet and Sriperumbudur we collect rather than asking you to travel.
Is Sree E-Waste a government authorized e-waste recycler?
Yes. Sree E-Waste is a government licensed e-waste handler, which is what allows us to buy, transport, dismantle and recycle electronic waste legally and to issue a valid recycling certificate. We operate under the trademark 'Redit Eco Recycling'. Ask for our authorization details before any bulk consignment — a legitimate recycler will always provide them.
Does Sree E-Waste charge for e-waste collection?
No. Collection is free anywhere in the Chennai metro. More than that, we pay you for anything with recoverable value — because we are licensed to recover the material ourselves rather than resell it to a middleman, we can quote a better rate than an ordinary scrap dealer.
How do I book an e-waste pickup with Sree E-Waste?
Call +91 78455 61376 or message us on WhatsApp with a photo and rough weight, and you will get an indicative price before we come. We confirm a slot — normally within 24–48 hours across Chennai — then weigh at your site, pay on the spot for scrap purchases and hand over a receipt.
Does Sree E-Waste give a recycling certificate?
Yes, for every bulk consignment. The certificate records what was collected, the weight, and how it was processed — which is the document your auditor will ask for under the E-Waste Management Rules. Where drives are involved you also receive a separate certificate of data destruction listing every serial number.
Which areas of Chennai does Sree E-Waste collect from?
The whole metropolitan area, including Perungudi, Velachery, OMR, Sholinganallur, Guindy, Adyar, Taramani, T. Nagar, Anna Nagar, Nungambakkam, Ekkattuthangal, Porur, Ambattur, Chromepet, Tambaram and Sriperumbudur. If your area is not listed and you are inside the metro, call — we will almost certainly still collect.
