I’ve been accumulating old electronics for about a decade now and I really need to safely dispose of them at this point. I know some cities have drop off spots for recycling, but the one near me charges a fee and appears to cater to business clients. Obviously I’m against tossing them in the bin. It’s small things, like an old iPod touch, Bluetooth speaker etc. What do you all do with your old Ewaste?

Edit: Whew. I’m tired after a long day of…you guessed it…work. Great suggestions in this thread. Thanks y’all!

    Keep them in a drawer because “I’ll need them some day”(I don’t think I’ll actually need them)

      Just this week I used a 20-year-old Radio Shack Canada Nexxtech 3.5mm mic/speaker USB connector and a DP-to-DVI connector I didn’t even know I had, in all the myriad tech junk I’m embarrassed to admit to hoarding.
