Electronics (e-waste) include computers, laptops, phones, tablets, TVs, monitors, printers and small appliances. They contain recoverable metals plus hazardous components, so most states steer them to dedicated recyclers rather than the trash.

In New Jersey we list 47 electronics drop-off locations across 46 cities, with the most in Newark, Bayville, Beachwood, Bernardsville and Cherry Hill Township. Each links to its full page with address, phone and hours.

Recycling Electronics in New Jersey: What to Know

💻 Computers & laptops
Widely accepted, usually free. Back up and factory-reset first; remove the drive if you want to keep it.
📱 Phones & tablets
Taken by drop-off centers and buyback kiosks. Wipe data and remove SIM/SD cards.
📺 TVs & monitors
CRT and large flat-screens often carry a recycling fee because leaded glass and panels are costly to process.
🖨️ Printers & peripherals
Printers, keyboards, cables and routers are accepted at most e-waste sites.

How to Prepare Electronics

  • Back up your data, then factory-reset phones and computers before drop-off.
  • Remove or physically destroy storage drives if the data is sensitive — or ask for certified data destruction.
  • Keep batteries with the device unless the site says otherwise; loose lithium batteries sometimes need a separate bin.
  • Call ahead about TVs and monitors — many sites charge a per-unit fee for CRT and large screens.

Electronics Recycling FAQ — New Jersey

Which New Jersey cities have the most electronics drop-off locations?

The most electronics drop-offs are in Newark (2), Bayville (1), Beachwood (1), Bernardsville (1) and Cherry Hill Township (1). In total we list 47 locations across 46 New Jersey cities — all listed above with addresses and hours.

Where can I recycle electronics in New Jersey?

Use the facilities listed above — they include drop-off centers, e-waste processors and retail take-back kiosks. Call ahead to confirm which devices they take, since rules on CRT TVs, monitors and batteries vary by site.

Is it free to recycle electronics?

Many devices (computers, phones, small electronics) are accepted free, but CRT and large-screen TVs often carry a fee because they are costly to process. Confirm fees before you drive over.

Should I wipe my data first?

Yes. Back up and factory-reset phones and computers, and remove storage drives where possible. Some recyclers offer certified data destruction — ask if you need a certificate.

Can I throw electronics in the trash?

In many states e-waste is banned from landfills because of lead, mercury and other hazards. Recycling through a listed facility keeps those materials out of the waste stream and recovers valuable metals.
