HOW WE MEASURE

Every pound diverted. Every device placed. Every story tracked.

When you partner with ERA, you don't just get a recycling receipt — you get a tangible impact report. Material weights, asset counts, and where refurbished devices ended up are all captured and shared back. That tracking is how we can report nearly 900 devices placed across the network in the first five months of 2026.

  • Diversion totals by weight and material type
  • Asset-level reuse vs. recycle ratios
  • Donation recipient summaries (with photos when available)
  • ESG-ready impact statement for your sustainability reporting
