Before you visit
**Quick checklist before you go:** confirm the location's hours by phone, back up and erase any device with storage, separate batteries from devices, and verify whether the site charges for items like CRT monitors or microwaves. Drop-off rules can change without notice.
Modern integrated smelters (Aurubis, Umicore, Boliden) can recover the precious metals embedded in circuit boards. Drop-off sites like this one are the first link in that recovery chain.
