The price of your electronics destruction and recycling project will depend on what devices you have, how many, the method you choose, your location, and other factors.

-Type of Devices: Different electronics contain varying amounts of precious metals, which can affect recycling costs.

-Location: The cost of collecting and transporting e-waste to your service provider’s facility affects overall pricing.
