Consumer Recycling Locator

First, thank you for making the right choice and looking for a place to safely and properly recycle your electronics!  You’d probably be surprised to know that only 20% of all eWaste is properly recycled. 

Apto Solutions focuses on assisting businesses with their eWaste and does not accept drop-offs from the public, but here are some resources to help you find the best solution in your area:
