About This Location

It handles the full range of electronics — computers, monitors, and other IT equipment — as well as home appliances including air-conditioning units and refrigerators, plus batteries, cardboard, and industrial Styrofoam packaging. Because it emphasizes data destruction and bulk electronics processing, it leans toward business and institutional clients rather than a quick household drop-off counter; hours and whether walk-in residential drop-off is accepted aren't clearly published, so call ahead before bringing items. It's listed in the Massachusetts RecyclingWorks database as an electronics recycler.
