Welcome to the forum. You will probably get alot of questions about plastic as very few of us have found outlets for the limited quantities we generate.

I'll fire away.

Many of us deal with ewaste and as a result accumulate alot of plastic. Do you buy plastic from ewaste and if so could you provide more information?

I have the same problems recycling e waste plastics. The problem is (as you probably know) the difference in grades and types of plastic used. ABS, ASA, PC, etc. If sorted and kept separate, I could find a home for them. It is just tough and time consuming. Our plastics facility mainly deals with large scale commercial contracts compared to individual plastic scrap.

Hope I could help,

David
