The 2026 Electronics Recycling Competition—a partnership between Waste Wise Lane County (Lane County Waste Management) and NextStep Recycling—has once again set a new benchmark for waste diversion in local schools. Following a record-breaking 2025 competition, participating schools surpassed expectations again this year.

Last year, 48 schools diverted 41,491 pounds of electronic waste from the landfill—an all-time high at the time. This year, between January and April, 46 schools collected an impressive 55,293 pounds of e-waste. That’s 13,802 pounds over 2025, marking a 33 percent increase in materials recovered.

Pleasant Hill Elementary led the pack as the top-collecting school, bringing in an impressive 7,677 pounds of electronic waste. Thank you to all of the participating schools and for the amazing support from our community!

For more information about the competition, including full results, or to learn how your school can participate in future years, visit wastewiselane.org/ERC.
