How the process works

  1. I pick up eligible e-waste items from homes and small businesses.
  2. I disassemble devices and sort reusable and recyclable components.
  3. I deliver circuit boards and materials to Aurum Recovery in Concord, New Hampshire for final processing.

Pickup is free with a minimum of 5 main items (negotiable). A computer, a box of cables, or circuit boards each count as one main item. I can also place neighborhood bins for smaller household e-waste.
