How to recycle electronics
Wipe your data first: sign out of accounts and factory-reset phones, tablets and computers, or remove the hard drive.
Small items like phones and cables are usually free to drop off. Older tube TVs and large monitors often cost a fee because they are expensive to process.
Retailers and manufacturers also take back some devices. The EPA lists certified recyclers and take-back programs on its electronics page.
