Electronics Recycling in Ocala, FL
Electronics recycling for Ocala and Marion County businesses and households, with appointment drop-off at our partner location on SW 16th Lane, business pickup across North Central Florida, and mail-in kits for small loads.
Recycle Technologies provides electronics recycling services through a partner location at 1007 SW 16th Lane in Ocala, just off the US-27, US-301 and US-441 corridor. We take desktops, laptops, servers, monitors and TVs (old CRT tube sets included), printers, copiers, scanners, fax machines, cell phones, cables, chargers and other everyday electronics. Businesses and residents can drop off on weekdays by appointment, so call before you come. Companies can book pickup within about 100 miles, from Gainesville to The Villages and Leesburg. Devices are taken apart so their metals, plastics, and circuit boards can be reused, and you get a certificate when the job is finished.

Electronics Recycling Options in Ocala
Drop-Off
If you're searching for e-waste recycling near you in Ocala or anywhere in Marion County, book a drop-off at our partner location on SW 16th Lane. The location opens at 6:00 AM on weekdays, early enough to stop by before work. Businesses and residents are both welcome, but every visit needs an appointment, so call ahead first.
The Ocala partner location also takes batteries, fluorescent lamps, ballasts and mercury devices, so a garage or office cleanout can come in one load. See all our drop-off locations.
Business Pickup
Offices, medical practices, schools, property managers, retailers and IT departments can book pickup within about 100 miles of Ocala. That reaches Belleview, Dunnellon, Silver Springs, The Villages, Leesburg and Gainesville.
Pickup is for business customers. When you request a quote, list the equipment types, a rough count or pallet total, and your site address, and mention any hard drives that need secure destruction.
Mail-In Recycling
For a few phones, a laptop or a box of cables, order a prepaid electronic waste recycling kit. Pack it, seal it and drop it at FedEx. Read how our mail-in recycling program works before you order. TVs, copiers and other large equipment should come in by appointment or go out on a pickup.
Electronics Disposal in Ocala and Marion County
Florida doesn't have a statewide electronics recycling law, but the state's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) urges residents and businesses to recycle every unwanted TV, computer and phone. Old electronics hold lead in their circuit board solder and CRT glass, and some flat-panel screens have mercury in their backlights. DEP also notes that CRT glass is hard to market, and some recyclers have dropped tube TVs altogether. Even Goodwill and the Salvation Army have stopped taking CRT sets.
County drop-off is limited, especially for businesses:
Marion County recycling centers
Household electronics go only to certain centers, not all 18. Centers are for residents who pay the solid waste assessment or hold a permit.
Businesses
The county says businesses that don't pay the solid waste assessment fee aren't permitted to use the recycling centers.
Baseline
The old Baseline landfill on SE 66th Street filled up in July 2019 and now runs as a transfer station. County waste is trucked to a landfill in Sumter County.
DEP's advice for businesses is to ask any recycler where the scrap ends up and how data on the equipment is destroyed. The steps above show where each material goes; our hard drive destruction service covers the data, and the Ocala partner location takes the office equipment, CRTs, and large loads the county centers can't.
