Like many folks, I want to do my part in trying to save the planet by recycling the various things that I use, and over the years, I have collected a few things…
Sometimes it is not easy to know what to do with a collection, and things like eBay, are not the best or easiest solution, so…
So I have put together a Post on where to Recycle eWaste in the Downingtown, Chester County PA area, for those that might be experiencing a similar situation.
If know of any other ways to locally recycle eWaste, please let me know!
Borough of Downingtown
The Borough of Downingtown also maintains a website for Recycling, which include such things as:
- Trash & Recycling on Tuesdays
- Bulk Trash on the LAST Tuesday of the Month
- Tree Limb Chipping on the 2nd Monday of the Month (Appointment Only)
For more information, please check the website, or their Facebook page.
Chester County Solid Waste Authority
Bet you have never heard of these folks, but they help run many of the local recycling efforts, and should be first on your list of places to check.
The map below show what is going on currently in the Chester County area:

Additional Links can be found at their main website, chestercountyswa.org.
There is also a Facebook page, where you can also “Like” them!
RecyclingCenters.org
Doing a quick search on recyclingcenters.org, can also be helpful if you have something more unique.
Best Buy
This was another national company that I found that has an eWaste program, and has a local drop-off policy.
I called the store in Downingtown, and spoke with someone in the Geek Squad about what to do when you bring in your 3 items per day limit.
You do not need to call ahead, but you are asked to bring items to the Customer Service people at Geek Squad desk, at the right when you walk in.
If you have more than one item or need help, it is requested that you contact the Security for further assistance.
Hopefully, this information will help someone else in the area!
I do plan to up-date the page as needed, so please, if you find something, please let me know!
