Blue Star Recyclers

What We Do

Our award-winning social enterprise employs people with disabilities — a workforce facing over 90% unemployment — to recycle electronics. Our economic, social, and environmental results speak for themselves: 21 meaningful jobs translate to an annual savings of $250,000 in reduced taxpayer-funded benefits and 3 million pounds of electronic waste ethically recycled.

Why We’re Great!

We tackle two significant problems: meaningful employment for an underserved population, and diverting electronic waste from landfills through ethical recycling. We completely dismantle the components and recycle ALL of it — we don’t just strip valuable materials and dump the rest like many “recyclers.” And we continue to give back — our community recycling events generated over $21,000 for local charities last year!
