WHY DOESN’T NYC HAVE A MORE CONVENIENT ELECTRONICS RECYCLING PROGRAM?
Unfortunately due to budget cuts all electronics recycling events are cancelled. In the past the DSNY Bureau of Waste Prevention, Reuse and Recycling has held electronics recycling events 10 times a year throughout the City. Additionally, Local Law 13 of 2008, signed by the Mayor on April 1, 2008, will add no-cost and convenient opportunities for recycling your electronics. There are also various other donation or recycling outlets available for electronics, including many manufacturer and retailer take-back programs, community group collections, and charitable organization donation programs.
