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.

Per the UN Global E-Waste Monitor 2024, the world generated 62 million tonnes of e-waste in 2022 - only 22.3% was formally collected and recycled. Drop-off points like this one are how that number moves.
