We had a large amount of electronics that were broken, outdated, etc. Bluntly no one had gotten rid of anything for a long time. so I called Maggie at Green Century. Two days later the truck arrives, really nice driver takes 3 pallet loads of stuff. Really nice people, took care moving stuff not to damage the office. We will never have that much stuff again, but we will be calling Green Century more often. Thanks Maggie

The team makes it so easy to drop and go. They are great about getting you the certificates of destruction. Everyone i have communicated with has been helpful and friendly.

I bought a refurbished laptop from these folks. It worked great until a couple days after warranty when I turned on but had no picture. They fixed the monitor back to new for me, free of charge, even though the warranty had expired. Great place to do business and super nice people.

Green Century has been a fantastic company to partner with my computer and electronics repair business. Their staff is always super helpful and quick to respond to anything we need and their drivers and pickup crew have always been super friendly, efficient, respectful of our space and time, and just overall great folks. Green Century fills an essential role for our business and in and for our community at large, and I, for one, am ridiculously thankful to have them around and to be able to continue to give them my business. A lot of places peak and then go downhill, but we've been working with Green Century since 2015 and never had a bad experience - it's only gotten smoother and easier over the years. Thank you so much for everything you do!

Questions & Answers

Is there a charge?

Depends on what it is. No charge on a window mount AC unit, $20 for an old chest freezer. Call them and they'll tell you.

What can be recycled with the main electronic component? Can Power blocks, a mouse, a keyboard, a monitor and cords be included for recycling? Can old non-film (Digital) cameras be recycled? How about the Battery cells that power these components?

They are efficient and friendly. They took my mouse, keyboard, cords, broken electronic parts [circuit boards taken out of its housing], cell phones, monitors, hard drives, and even ups backup batteries. They do not take: toner/ink left in printers, household batteries [AA, AAA, 9V, etc], or light bulbs. Everything on your list is OK except the batteries.
