What to Bring
Most household electronics are welcome: computers and laptops, monitors and TVs, phones and tablets, printers, stereos, cables, and accessories. If it plugs in, it is likely accepted. Each host sets the details for their own event, so check the event listing or the host's announcement for anything specific.
Worried about what is on an old computer? Hard drives collected at our events come back to our Georgetown facility, where they are destroyed on our own hard drive shredder. Your personal files, photos, and passwords don't go anywhere else.
What we accept from households →Why Community Events Matter
Old electronics contain materials like lead and mercury that don't belong in a landfill, and many of them sit in basements for years because there is no easy way to get rid of them. A recycling day gives a whole town one simple, trusted place to bring them.
We operate in full alignment with industry-leading disposition standards. To ensure fully auditable responsible recycling, we partner with Colt Recycling—an R2v3 and ISO 9001/14001/45001 certified facility—for all downstream processing.
Host a Recycling Event
Towns, schools, booster clubs, scout troops, and community organizations host electronics recycling days with BoxQ, trusted by schools, towns, and businesses across New England for more than 25 years. You provide the place and the people; our own trained employees and our truck handle the rest.

Pick a date and a place
A school, town hall, DPW yard, or church parking lot with room for a box truck and a line of cars works well.
- 2
Spread the word
You promote the day to your community. We can tell you what is accepted so your flyers are accurate.
- 3
We bring the truck and the crew
Our own trained employees unload cars, sort equipment, and load the truck, so your volunteers are not lifting TVs.

We take it from there
Everything goes back to our Georgetown facility, where drives are destroyed and equipment is recycled responsibly.
