Recycle Technologies are my "go to" for all of my electronics recycling needs. I love that I don't have to worry or stress anymore about having a closet full of random electronics, accessories, and hazardous items that I can't throw away in the normal trash. Their staff is friendly and helpful, and with convenient drop off, the services they provide are a no brainer. Recycle Technologies - cleaning up the world one light bulb, power cord, battery, and circuit board at a time.👍👍

We couldn’t be more pleased with the level of service provided by Recycle Technologies. Our electronics are picked up within in a day or two of calling, the drivers are always friendly, professional (and again, fast) and the price is fair and affordable. Even with larger, one-off items, Recycle Technologies always comes through. They regularly help us remove and recycle items safely in the most cost-effective, environmentally friendly manner.
