Before you visit

**Before you visit:** call ahead to confirm current accepted items and opening hours. Wipe personal data from any device with a hard drive or storage chip. Remove batteries from devices where possible. Some sites charge fees for CRT TVs, large appliances, or commercial-quantity drop-offs.

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.
