India is one of the fastest-growing electronics markets in the world, but with every upgrade comes a question: What happens to the old devices? Too often, old chargers, batteries, and dead smartphones end up in regular dustbins, eventually reaching landfills where they can harm our soil and water.
At Carlcare Service, we are committed to closing the loop. As a responsible service provider, we have established a safe, compliant, and easy way for you to discard your electronic waste.
Here is how our E-Waste Management Program works in India and how you can contribute.
Our Approach: Repair First, Recycle Responsibly
1. Extending Device Life The most eco-friendly device is the one you keep using. Our primary goal at our 1100+ service centers is to fix your TECNO, Infinix, or itel device using genuine parts. Repairing a phone reduces the demand for new manufacturing and keeps e-waste out of the ecosystem for years.
2. Safe Disposal via E-Waste Bins When a device or accessory (like a swollen battery or broken charger) truly reaches the end of its life, it cannot be thrown in the trash. To facilitate safe disposal, Carlcare has installed dedicated E-Waste Bins at select authorized service centers across India.
-
What goes in: Old mobile phones, dead batteries, chargers, earphones, and USB cables.
-
What happens next: The waste collected in these bins is not dumped. It is handed over to government-authorized recyclers who safely dismantle the components, recovering valuable metals and neutralizing hazardous materials in an environmentally friendly way.
How You Can Drop Off Your Old Electronics
Not every center has an e-waste bin, so we have made it easy for you to find the right location.
Step 1: Identify Your E-Waste Gather your non-functional electronic items. Remember to factory reset your phone to wipe your personal data before dropping it off.
Step 2: Call Us to Find a Bin Since e-waste bins are located at specific flagship centers, the best way to find the one nearest to you is to call our hotline.
