HORNE SMELTER

Recycling depot

Electronics and electrical equipment contain precious metals that can be recovered and recycled.

Let’s do our part for the environment and help give these materials a second life. How? Bring all the electronics and electrical equipment you no longer use to the depot across from the smelter.

We’re an official depot for the ARPE-Quebec Recycle My Electronics program. The organization handles the collection and recycling of a wide range of electronics. See the full list of accepted products under the “What Can I Recycle?” tab of the official website.
