To achieve the highest environmental outcome, e-waste items must be manually dismantled into individual materials and components. This is labour intensive and expensive, as difficult waste streams such as glass, mercury, batteries and wood must be forwarded on at a charge for environmentally sound recycling. These costs, combined with labour costs, are higher than the returns from the materials contained within e-waste. Therefore to provide this service a fee must be charged to cover the gap between the costs of disassembly and revenue earned from the components and materials.

Other disposal methods may be cheaper – or free. These are most likely to result in large volumes of material which can be recycled and toxic materials often contained in e-waste going to landfill. Disposal pathways for e-waste which are cheap or free do not reflect the true cost of recycling this material- instead these costs are externalised to the environment and community leaving subsequent generations to bear the expense of living and cleaning up contaminated land and water.
