Get Rid Of Your Old Electronics Junk With Best Buy’s New Haul Away Service

Now is the perfect time to get rid of that old tech junk that has been taking up space, as Best Buy (BBY) has launched a new Standalone Haul-Away service that will recycle or replace e-waste for a fee.

The program, which starts this month, will pick up a variety of tech items, including TVs, major appliances, computers, monitors, laptops, cameras, cords, gaming consoles, and more, from customers’ homes and “responsibly and safely” recycle them.

Consumers can request pickup and recycling for their electronics from Best Buy, which will come remove up to two large items from their homes along with select smaller products for $199.99.

Customers who are Best Buy Totaltech members will receive a 20% discount when they use the Standalone Haul-Away service.

A full list of products that Best Buy will accept can be viewed here. The items do not need to have been bought at Best Buy for the tech retailer to pick them up.

Appointments can be set up on the Best Buy website for the Haul-Away service.

“We feel we have an important role to play in helping our planet, including being there for the entire lifecycle of a product – from the time a customer starts shopping until that product is responsibly recycled. This new service will make this important work even more convenient for customers," Tim Dunn, Best Buy’s head of environmental sustainability, said in a statement.

Best Buy also offers haul away of old equipment for customers that have purchased a new TV, major appliance, or select fitness equipment from its stores. Customers can also drop off three electronics per household, per day, at its locations through its recycling program or benefit from its trade-in program, which offers gift cards in exchange for tech items that still have value.

Best Buy said it has recycled more than 2 billion pounds of electronics and appliances from its customers since 2009.

As of Wednesday at 1:26 p.m. ET, shares of Best Buy were trading at $94.59, down 98 cents, or 1.03%.
