New service makes electronic recycling easy and
convenient for customers; ship everything from laptops, cords,
tablets and more
As the nation’s largest retail collector of
e-waste, Best Buy has recycled 2.7 billion pounds of electronics
and appliances
Recycling your old electronics is about to become easier than
ever. Best Buy is introducing a new nationwide, easy-to-use program
that allows you to recycle all your old tech - by mail!
Starting this month, you can order a prepaid Best Buy Technology
Recycling Box and ship off your old electronics for recycling.
Through the service, we will give your tech a second life or
recycle it responsibly to protect the environment.
“We continue to build on our commitment to be there for our
customers throughout the entire lifecycle of their products by
making recycling simple and convenient,” said Tim Dunn, Best Buy’s
head of environmental sustainability. “Sustainability is at the
forefront of everything we do and this new service is another step
we are taking to protect the planet today and for future
generations.”
To continue supporting our goal to achieve net zero emissions by
2040, the Best Buy Technology Recycling Box will also be a carbon
neutral service.
Here’s how it works in three easy steps.
Step 1: Order a prepaid box from BestBuy.com. You can
choose from two options. A small box (9 X 5 X 3 - $22.99), which
can carry up to 6 lbs, or a medium box (18 X 14 X 4 - $29.99),
which can carry up to 15 lbs.
Step 2: The box arrives at your home, and you fill it up
with old gadgets lying around the house, whether that’s a tablet,
cords, keyboards or more. See the full list of products we recycle
here.
Step 3: You ship the prepaid box by taking it to your
nearest UPS drop-off location or scheduling a pickup with UPS.
You’re done! Your electronics are securely and responsibly
recycled.
