E‐waste is currently identified as the world's fastest‐growing waste stream. The key driver behind this trend is the rapid technological advancement and socio‐economic development. When hazardous chemicals are not properly handled, e‐waste may harm ecosystems and human well‐being. Direct effects include releases of acids, heavy metal toxicity, carcinogens and indirect effects such as heavy metal bio‐enlargement, acids enlargement and toxicity problems. In this study, a specific type of system is utilised to collect and transport the different types of hazardous e‐waste using sustainable transportation with the decision‐making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL). The proposed method of DEMATEL is utilised to identify the relationship and the degree of impact among determined e‐waste recycling barriers. The experimental results suggest input material, lack of funds and most affecting factors that are required to be addressed for the improvement of e‐waste recycling infrastructure.
