Where e-waste comes from in George

George is the commercial centre of the Garden Route, serving towns from Mossel Bay to Plettenberg Bay. Its e-waste comes from retail centres, municipal offices, schools, a university campus and hospitals, as well as timber and dairy businesses in the surrounding area. Many homes and lodges have installed solar and backup power, producing old inverters and batteries. Holiday homes and retirement estates add household appliances. Businesses, schools and estate managers are typical clients for collections.
