Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about electronics recycling.

Sunada Recycling provides electronics recycling, e-waste pickup, and secure data destruction across Los Angeles County and Orange County. If you're looking for electronics recycling "near me," the fastest way to get started is to choose a service option: E-waste Pickup, E-waste Drop-Off, or E-waste Mail-In. For businesses needing IT asset disposal (ITAD), visit Services.

Where can I recycle electronics (e-waste) in Los Angeles County?

The safest option is to use a certified electronics recycler that can properly handle regulated items and downstream processing. Sunada Recycling offers multiple options for Los Angeles County residents and businesses, including drop-off and pickup. If you're unsure which option fits your load, the quickest next step is to contact our team through Contact Us and share what you have (type + approximate quantity).

Do you offer e-waste pickup in Los Angeles County and Orange County?

Yes. We provide electronics recycling pickup across Los Angeles County and also serve Orange County. Pickup availability can depend on volume, item types (for example, TVs/monitors vs. small devices), and scheduling capacity. To request pickup, use our E-waste Pickup page. If you prefer to bring items in, see E-waste Drop-Off.

How much does e-waste recycling cost? Is electronics recycling ever free?

Costs can vary based on the electronics type, quantity, and whether you need pickup, business documentation, or specialty handling. Many common items may be recycled at no cost depending on type and volume, while certain regulated items (such as some batteries/light bulbs) or services (like pickup for small loads) may involve fees. The fastest way to confirm pricing is to request a quote through Contact Us and list the items you're recycling.

What electronics do you accept for recycling (computers, TVs, printers, etc.)?

We accept most electronics and e-waste, including computers, laptops, monitors, TVs, printers, servers, phones, networking equipment, and other small electronics. If you have a mixed load (home cleanout or office refresh), it's helpful to group items into categories (computers, screens, printers, cables, batteries) so we can confirm handling and any special requirements before pickup or drop-off. For service options, visit Services.

How do I schedule an e-waste pickup "near me" (step-by-step)?

Scheduling is simple:
1) Go to E-waste Pickup.
2) Share your location (Los Angeles County or Orange County), item types, and approximate quantity.
3) Choose a preferred time window and any add-ons (like data destruction or certificates).
Pickup can often be scheduled within a few business days depending on location and volume.

Do I need to wipe my hard drive before recycling a computer?

You don't have to do it yourself, but you should make a plan before recycling any device that stores personal or business data. If you're recycling computers, laptops, servers, or storage devices, consider professional data destruction for peace of mind and compliance. Sunada Recycling offers secure data destruction options — learn more at Hard Drive Data Destruction (Los Angeles). If you're dropping off devices, you can also ask about data handling when you arrive.

Is data destruction included with electronics recycling?

Data destruction is available upon request and is typically priced separately from standard electronics recycling. This is common because data-bearing assets may require chain-of-custody handling, tracking, and specific destruction methods. If you're a business managing IT asset disposal (ITAD) or retiring equipment, we recommend confirming the scope up front (device count, serial tracking needs, and certificate requirements). Details are available at Hard Drive Data Destruction.

Do you provide a certificate of recycling or certificate of data destruction?

Yes. Certificates can be provided for businesses and organizations that need documentation for compliance, audits, or internal records. If you need a certificate, mention it when scheduling pickup or arranging a drop-off so the paperwork matches the services performed (recycling only vs. recycling + data destruction). For business-focused service options, see Services.

Is it legal to throw away electronics in California?

Many electronics are treated as regulated or hazardous materials in California, and disposal rules can depend on the device type (especially items like certain batteries, TVs, and monitors). To avoid environmental harm and potential compliance issues, it's best to use a responsible recycling option such as a certified electronics recycler, a drop-off program, or scheduled pickup. For options with Sunada Recycling, start with Drop-Off or Pickup.

Do you recycle batteries and TVs/monitors (including older CRT-style screens)?

Yes, we can handle regulated e-waste such as batteries and many types of TVs/monitors, including older screen technologies that require specialized processing. Because these items can affect handling requirements and pricing, it helps to tell us the screen size/type and quantity before pickup. If you're unsure what you have, send a quick description through Contact Us and we'll guide you to the right option.

Do you provide electronics recycling for businesses (ITAD) in Los Angeles and Orange County?

Yes. We support businesses with bulk electronics recycling and IT asset disposal (ITAD), including office cleanouts, equipment refresh cycles, and ongoing recycling programs. Business clients often need additional services such as pickup coordination, inventory/asset tracking, secure data destruction, and certificates. To review business service options, visit Services and contact us to scope your project.

What happens to my electronics after pickup or drop-off?

After collection, electronics are typically sorted by category (devices, screens, peripherals, batteries), then dismantled and processed for responsible material recovery and recycling. Data-bearing assets can be separated for secure handling when data destruction is requested. This approach helps keep hazardous components out of landfills while recovering reusable materials through proper downstream channels.

What areas do you serve for e-waste pickup and electronics recycling?

We serve all of Los Angeles County and also provide service in Orange County. For local pages and service details, see the location pages below. If you don't see your city listed, you can still request service via Contact Us.
