Best Buy Electronics Recycling Project

You probably hear it just about every day – Recycle. It’s a fairly easy thing to do but sometimes there are items you are left wondering about and have no idea how to (or that it’s actually possible) recycle them.

Technology is the fastest growing waste stream on the planet. As one of the world’s largest retailer of consumer electronics, Best Buy wants to be part of the solution. Did you know that you can actually recycle TV’s, video cables, DVD players, and other electronics?

That’s what is great about Best Buy’s Recycling Project – no matter where you bought or how old it is, Best Buy will recycle it!  Best Buy recycles 387 pounds of electronics each minute our stores are open. Did you know that Best Buy carries a whole line of Energy Star certified products as well?  Recycle your old electronics and upgrade to more energy efficient ones.  To learn more about our Energy Star certified products check out the Best Buy site.

The best part is that Best Buy will recycle them for free. There is no fee, no matter how many items you bring in. When you bring in your old electronics you are doing your part to keep our Earth as clean as possible and a part of the solution.

Each state has restrictions and you can find a complete list of the acceptable electronics on the Recycling Project page of Best Buy
