Cell Phones and Communication Devices

Recycle cell phones and communication devices at retail drop-off locations and through city computer recycling events. Do not place in your curbside recycling.

In 2026, Chagrin Falls will have a drop-off for computer equipment, including cell phones, on April 4 and October 13 at the Chagrin Falls Service Garage. Hours are 8:00-11:00 AM. Residents only, ID required. No TVs accepted.

Service Garage: 240 Solon Road, Chagrin Falls

Cell phones, communication devices, and personal electronics can be recycled, but not in your curbside recycling cart or bin. Most electronics contain valuable metals that can be recovered through a special drop-off recycling program.

Retailer Recycling Programs

Cell phones can be recycled at mobile carrier retail locations such as AT&T, Best Buy, T-Mobile, and Verizon. Look for the in-store dropbox.

Batteries Plus accepts cell phones, smartphones, and other devices. See details.

Best Buy accepts landline phones, hands-free headsets, two-way radios, wireless broadband, cell phones, smart watches, and other personal electronics for recycling. See details.

City Recycling Programs

In some communities, residents can recycle unwanted cell phones along with personal computer equipment. Many of the 59 communities in Cuyahoga County offer year-round collection and recycling of computer equipment. Some hold seasonal collection events at the city service department, typically in the spring or fall.

To find collection information for your community, use this website’s geolocation services, or choose your community from the green ‘Select a City’ drop-down at the top of the page and click 'See Details.'

Other Recycling Programs

Cleveland Metroparks Zoo collects cell phones plus other small personal electronics and recycles them through ECO-CELL, an organization dedicated to gorilla conservation.

Cuyahoga County residents can recycle cell phones, mobile devices, computer equipment and peripherals, tablets, and handheld electronics at the Solid Waste District.

Look for the labeled collection bin. No bags or boxes in the recycling bin, please. Place items loose in our lobby drop box and take all bags, boxes, and containers home with you.
