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.

An average smartphone contains around 0.034g of gold, 16g of copper, and 25g of aluminium. Multiplied across the millions of devices retired each year, those grams add up - which is why a working drop-off network matters.
