You trust us when it's time to buy the latest electronics. You can also trust us to help you safely dispose of your old ones.

In fact, many of your broken, obsolete, or unwanted gadgets are just waiting to be e-incarnated. So bring them to us. And we'll make sure they're properly and safely recycled, so they have the chance to perhaps come back as something even cooler in the future. It's all part of our Greener Together™ program.

And we'll take just about anything electronic, including TVs, DVD players, computer monitors, cell phones and more. You can bring in up to two items a day, per household, and most things are absolutely free. However, there is a $10 charge for TVs 32" and under, CRTs, monitors and laptops — but we'll give you a $10 Best Buy gift card to offset that cost. It's just a little e-incarnation appreciation.

So do it for the Earth. Do it to get rid of some old junk. Or just do it for some good Karma.

Best Buy® + You. We're Greener Together.
