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.
