Mike Wachtel, President of GREENspot teaches elementary school students about the importance of recycling e-waste
Did you know most recyclers charge you a fee to come and collect your e-waste. Why not? You don't want to go all the way down to the recycler to get rid of that old computer. Hey we cant blame you. That's why we developed GREENspot DROPoff.
At GREENspot DROPoff we've partnered with businesses, and the recyclers to make e-waste disposal easy and free for you! Just go to your local GREENspot DROPoff location, sign out your e-waste by filling out the DROPoff Log (it's the law) and DROPoff those old electrical items. It's that easy! But more than easy, it's free for you!
Our goal at GREENspot DROPoff is to go beyond free and convenient recycling—to help our communities while helping the environment. So more than just a convenient DROPoff network, we've partnered with local schools and charities to help raise money. We call it our GREEN2 program—charities get GREEN while going GREEN. Get it?

Our committment to the environment comes first and foremost. That's why we only use E-Stewards and R2 certified recyclers who do not ship material overseas and maintain a zero landfill policy. For more information on our environmental policies, click HERE.
