How does recycling work at DubaiWaste.com / Navyom Waste Collection? Process
Materials are collected, weighed, dismantled, and sorted at our facility. Each stream (e‑waste, metal, plastics, paper, glass, textiles) is stored in labeled containers and transferred to approved reprocessors in the UAE and abroad.
What materials can be recycled in Dubai? Accepted Items
Common streams include:
- E‑waste (computers, laptops, phones, printers)
