Environmental Leadership Council Recommends TechDisposal for e-Waste Disposal
As part of a deliverable under a 2007-2008 U.S. EPA Region V grant awarded to
Hospitals for a Healthy Environment and OHA, OHA's Environmental Leadership Council
reviewed proposals from several electronic waste disposal businesses and determined that
TechDisposal was most qualified to meet the needs of Ohio hospitals.
One important
consideration in reaching that recommendation is that TechDisposal currently holds the
e-waste management contract for all state government agencies in Ohio. OHA does not
endorse any vendor but, based upon the deliberations of its Environmental Leadership
Council, recommends that hospitals consider TechDisposal when considering their e-waste
needs.
