E-Waste Recycling Laws and Programs in Nevada

Nevada does not have a statewide mandatory e-waste recycling program or law compelling electronics recycling. In practice, electronics recycling in Nevada occurs through a patchwork of local government programs, private recycling companies, and casino or business initiatives (given the large hospitality industry, many companies handle their electronics responsibly). Residents of cities like Las Vegas and Reno typically have access to e-waste drop-off events or can bring electronics to county facilities for recycling, but these services are not uniform statewide. Nevada has encouraged recycling by raising public awareness, yet there is no ban on disposing of electronics in the trash. The state has considered legislation in the past, but currently relies on consumers to utilize the available recycling options to reduce the electronic waste stream.
