Electronics Recycling
In addition to junk hauling, we will safely recycle your electronics with our e-waste removal services.
We can provide electronics recycling as part of a larger junk removal project, but we’re also happy to offer standalone electronics recycling in Northern Virginia, including Loudoun County and the cities of Leesburg, Reston, and Winchester.
If you’ve accumulated old computer monitors, TVs, and various gadgets and gizmos you’ve been gifted over the years, it’s time to clear them out and free up space in your home! Why leave them in closets and attics where they gather dust when they can be picked up by our team and recycled responsibly? No guilt for throwing them in the trash, no hassle trying to find an electronics recycling location to take them to and lugging them out to your car.

How We Handle Electronic Waste Disposal
What does it mean to recycle electronics? If it was as simple as tossing it in the recycling bin and putting it on the curb on garbage day, you wouldn’t be calling us for help! One of the reasons so many businesses and households in Northern Virginia choose Pack Rat Hauling is our commitment to the environment and sustainability, which extends to our e-waste removal services.
If any of your items are still functional, we donate them to our local charity partners for resale or reuse. Everything that is not in usable condition is brought to a specialized electronics recycling facility where each item is disassembled and parts are sorted to ensure that every component is either refurbished or recycled safely and responsibly, with hazardous materials being disposed of according to EPA guidelines.

Frequently Asked Questions About Electronics Recycling
What is the best way to dispose of old electronics?
If your old electronics are still working, we encourage you to sell or offer them to someone who could use them. Giving your old items a second life with someone else is a great way to reduce your environmental impact. Old electronics that are no longer working should be recycled, not thrown in the trash, as they often contain hazardous materials. Contact Pack Rat Hauling to arrange for our junk haulers to remove and recycle your old electronics.
How much does it cost to recycle electronics?
Most small electronics are included with Junk Removal Services, but some items do carry an additional fee. Please check our FAQs for additional costs of certain electronics.
Can I throw electronics in the recycle bin?
Nope! There is lead, mercury, cadmium, and other toxic materials in electronics, so only highly specialized e-waste recycling centers are equipped to handle these items.
Should I wipe my computer’s hard drive or phone clean of personal information before recycling them?
This is a decision for you to make, but most security experts do recommend taking this step before recycling electronics. Search the internet for instructions on wiping the memory of your specific device and then give it a factory reset.
Can you take my electronics to the dump with the rest of my junk?
No, they will not be accepted. Because electronics contain toxic materials, they cannot be thrown out with regular trash.
