CAIRO - 20 June 2026: If you have old phones, broken computers, or damaged household appliances taking up space in your home, don't throw them away haphazardly.
They contain hazardous materials that harm the soil and water, but at the same time, they contain valuable metals that can be recycled.
The government launched the "E-Tadweer" app to be your safe bridge for disposing of electronic waste professionally, in exchange for incentive rewards that make preserving the environment profitable for you.
How to benefit from the E-Tadweer app:
Simply download the app, take pictures of your old devices, then choose the nearest drop-off point or request a representative to collect them.
In return, you will receive discount coupons that you can use when buying new devices from major stores participating in the initiative.
This process ensures that this waste goes to official recycling plants that extract useful materials and safely treat toxic substances, instead of ending up with unqualified scrap collectors.
Environmental and health impact of safe waste disposal
Electronic waste is the fastest-growing form of waste worldwide, and improper handling can lead to serious illnesses.
By participating in this system, you protect your family from the risks of chemical leaks into your home and support the circular economy, which relies on reusing resources. Be a responsible citizen, declutter, receive real discounts, and contribute to building a greener Egypt.
