What happens to your electronics after pickup

Electronics are recycled at R2- or e-Stewards-certified e-waste facilities. Devices are disassembled and sorted: circuit boards are processed for gold, silver, copper, and palladium recovery. Screens are separated for glass and lead processing. Plastics are shredded and recycled. Hard drives, SSDs, and other storage media are physically destroyed (shredded or degaussed) to ensure complete data destruction — no data leaves the facility intact. The $20 e-waste recycling fee covers the cost of certified handling and hazardous material processing.
