Participants can drop off a wide range of electronic items, including computers, laptops, mobile phones, printers, televisions, networking devices, and small household appliances—essentially most electronics with a power cord. Organizers have also confirmed that free data destruction services will be provided for all devices, ensuring secure disposal of sensitive information.

While most items will be accepted at no cost, a $20 recycling fee will apply to older tube-style CRT televisions. Attendees may also contribute aluminum cans to support the Cans for Vets initiative.
