What it costs

This is a national program drop-off. National programs typically accept the manufacturer's own brand free of charge, with fees on third-party items or oversized goods (CRT monitors, large appliances). Confirm pricing with the location before drop-off.

What can be recovered from your e-waste

Material composition varies by device, but the typical recoverable yields look like this:

• Television (14000g typical) - recoverable: 0.11g gold, 0.65g silver, 480g copper, 320g aluminium
• Printer (8200g typical) - recoverable: 0.045g gold, 0.28g silver, 280g copper, 120g aluminium
• Ink cartridge (95g typical) - recoverable: 0.0g gold, 0.0g silver, 1.5g copper, 2g aluminium

Before you visit

**Preparing your e-waste:** factory-reset phones, tablets, and laptops before drop-off (most facilities will not perform data wiping for you). Bag loose batteries separately. Bring proof of residency if the program is municipality-funded. Check whether the site accepts the specific item you're bringing - acceptance varies widely.

Used electronics still hold recoverable value: gold connectors, copper bus bars, palladium in catalytic surfaces, and aluminium cases. Responsible recycling sends those materials back into the supply chain instead of into landfill.
