4TH BIN is so proud of our own Cory Kline for participating in DISASSEMBLY: Brooklyn’s panel discussion on smart sustainability, e-cycling, and consumer electronics at A/D/O.

DISASSEMBLY: Brooklyn is a participatory art installation that explores our obsession with technology and the untold story of the consumer electronics lifecycle, as well as the devastating environmental and labor conditions of offshore recycling. The artwork translates the global consumer electronic waste cycle into an immersive experience with a social conscience.

A Sustainable Halloween: Don’t Let Your Old Tech Haunt You

Halloween is a season full of thrills, chills, and surprises, but some of the scariest things are hiding right in your home or office. Old electronics may look harmless, but laptops, monitors, phones, and retired devices can be more frightening than any ghost. They often contain sensitive data and toxic materials that can come back to haunt you if not properly managed. Forgotten devices are more than clutter; they are hidden monsters waiting to be unleashed.

Sustainable IT Starts This Fall with 4THBIN

Fall is here and it is the season of fresh starts. September is when many organizations pause to review their priorities, set goals for the months ahead, and prepare for year-end. It is also the perfect time to take a closer look at your technology. Old laptops, unused monitors, and forgotten hard drives often pile up quietly, taking up space while still containing sensitive data and materials that can cause harm if not handled correctly.

The Growing E-Waste Challenge and How 4THBIN Can Help

As technology continues to evolve, so does the amount of outdated equipment businesses must manage. In 2022 alone, the world generated more than 62 million metric tonnes of electronic waste, much of which still goes unrecycled or improperly handled. For many organizations, managing retired devices often falls to the bottom of the priority list. But as these devices stack up in storage closets or are discarded through unofficial channels, they quietly create risks to both data security and the environment.
