Reuse and Recycling:
Any New York resident, small businesses (max. 50 employees), and non-profit organizations can drop-off unwanted electronics for free. If your equipment works, let us know and we will try to give it a second life. Whether your equipment gets reused or recycled, we guarantee data security.
We are now selling refurbished electronic equipment and parts out of the E-waste Warehouse. You can browse some of our newly listed items for sale here. If you do not see an item that you are looking for, email us your wish list at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
We will continue to hold e-waste collection events Citywide throughout the year as we have since 2003. Check our calendar for upcoming events.
