There is a growing number of repair services for electronics. At the same time, there are many people figuring out how to repair their latest broken gadget through online resources and a determination to save money. It is no coincidence that this also compares to growth in the electronic waste (eWaste) industry.
If eWaste is going to be mentioned than BAN should get a shout out. This is the leading source for everything about electronic waste so go there if you have questions. 10 new eWaste centers are being opened throughout the eastern United States.
Beyond the eWaste stuff is an industry more at the grassroots level. The electronic repair industry, lead by iPhone repair services, video game repair and everything in-between. It is not that people are going out of their way to be responsible citizens, rather, people just want to save some cash. Figuring out how to fix something yourself or getting it fixed is a good way to save a couple hundred dollars.
Most repair services are reputable, in that they will live up to expectations in terms of the quality of work and professionalism. Finding a local repair shop can be a good idea but seeking one our online that may offer more is also a good option. If you are unsure if a website is what it says a google search of the website may help. If they have many valuable resources and informational guides listed, it's usually safe to assume they provide valuable services as well.
Regardless, this rise in the eWaste industry and repair game are a good sign for a more green ecomony moving forward.
