We had a 50" TV that sadly no longer worked and we dropped it by Green Citizen. They were very helpful and made it so easy to drop. Love that they are recycling and reusing our e-waste. Highly recommend and will return here when we have something else that needs recycling. Please go to their website to see how many items they take! read more

Recycling my 45-inch Samsung TV at GreenCitizen, Inc. was incredibly convenient. The staff were friendly, professional, and very helpful throughout the process. There's no need to search for parking--just pull up to the entrance, and a staff member will come out and unload the items you want to recycle. The entire process was quick, easy, and hassle-free. It was a very pleasant experience, and I highly recommend GreenCitizen for electronics recycling. read more

Good signage on the premises, clear expectations of costs to recycle, and Chanel was very helpful! I recognize that recycling responsibly incurs processing and transpiration costs. I am happy to do my part in recycling responsibly. I would recommend getting rid of any unnecessary parts when you bring the recyclable items (e.g., boxes, packaging) that are regular trash because everything is measured by weight. I was able to recycle a bunch of random electronics that can't be reused. I will be back with my laptops and CDs/VHS next! Thanks to the staff here for helping us with our seasonal purging projects! read more

Dropped off electronics thru their drive up/drop off facility. A simple form was asked to be completed. Laptops are free to turn it. Printer and other equipment were weighed and charged $1 per pound. So quick and easy. read more

Love this company for e-waste service, I take cables, cords, small appliances, old iPhones and computers. Pull up at the door unload your old electronics. It's weighed and you are charged $1 per pound. This is very convenient since many places don't take any electronics donations. read more

Spectacularly easy! We were cleaning out the garage and old office stuff and had 5 laptops, 1 desktop, and 3 disk arrays that we needed recycled AND date wiped/secured. [Note: the trash haulers I talked to that take everything, including electronics would have been happy to remove the PCs and disks BUT they do not wipe the drives.] I phoned GreenCitizen and asked if I needed to do any special preparation of the equipment. I was told to just come on down. I did. I parked and was immediately met by the woman I'd talked to on the phone. (She has a slightly non-standard name which I didn't catch when we talked and I don't see it on the receipts, but she is praiseworthy!) She helped me unload my trunk, prepared an estimate, and completed the transaction in about 5 minutes. Very low key. Very professional. Thank you! read more

GreenCitizen - Pile of what I needed recycled - Recycling Center Near Me - Burlingame, California

I used this place twice to recycle my old TVs . Awesome customer service! Will definitely recommend this place for recycling.

I drop off monitors and old electronics for my job and this place makes it so much easy to recycle e-waste.

GreenCitizen - Recycling Center Near Me - Burlingame, California

My go-to place for responsible electronics and styrofoam recycling. They used to have small store branches around the Bay Area, but many years ago had to consolidate to keep running, so now it's just the main site south of SF Intl Airport. Their people are friendly and professional, it's a simple drive-up and drop off, and there's no worry that your used electronics will end up in a burn pit in Asia. I respect them and hope they keep offering this important service. read more

Very easy & quick. Love the drive up service! It's so helpful that something like this is available to properly be able to recycle electronics.

Very easy to do. I was greeted at the door and a cart was brought to me. Very easy and helpful staff.

My business recently moved offices, and I had to dispose of a bunch of old laptops and various hard drives. These guys removed and destroyed all the drives while I watched, and it was a quick and easy process. They have a "disk destroyer" that crushes traditional drives, and a drill press to destroy SSD memory chips. Highly recommended! read more

Recycling electronics can sometimes be a pretty inconvenient process though I do it to do my small part for the environment. My experience at GreenCitizen was quick and efficient and the staff is super friendly. Their location is right off the freeway and my dropoff process took less than 5 minutes. I would highly recommend them!! read more

Thanks to Marcus and Angelina for making our easy ways disposal, easy affordable, and effortless. Our move from office to office was made so much better due to a good neighbors deed. Recommend green citizen for all your E waste disposal. read more

It was really easy to just call up Junk King set an appointment and get my old stuff hauled away but even better, I found out that they have a standard minimum on how much they have to recycle and reuse. It makes me feel good that my junk is actually going to a good place. It's money that I would absolutely pay for instead of letting it just go to waste management to dump in landfill. I absolutely hate seeing things go trashed but with Junk King, I feel much better about where my stuff is going. read more

Maxim and his staff were extremely polite and very quick and helping me offload my recently broken flatscreen TV. They also took the box and the large pieces of Styrofoam off my hands for a very small cost. I will definitely be coming back to them in the future with Moore large broken electronics. read more

Worked with them to get a e-waste pickup coordinated for my office and Marcus was SO lovely and helpful on the phone, helping my get the best value of their service. The pickup team was also great. 10/10, highly recommend! read more

Excellent and friendly service Highly recommended. Will continue using their service. Easy access from hey 101 off Millbrae ave

Drive up , drop off. Easy! Staff was most polite and helpful! Will definitely be back again.

They offer a great service that, as far as I know, no one else provides locally. They take pretty much everything that curbside recycling doesn't, often at no charge, and when they do charge it's reasonable, at least for the small amounts I recycle. The staff is consistently friendly and professional. read more

easy, fast and inexpensive way to wipe and get rid of your electronics, laptops, and any other e waste

This is the first time I've used Green Citizen. I called because I wanted to ask to see if they could take a broken sump pump. I spoke with Angelina, who was incredibly helpful. When I dropped my items off, I met a very friendly worker named Maxim. I absolutely love the service they're providing and way they work! read more

Easy, helpful, fast. I dropped ofd an old laptop, took about 1 minute. It was free. You need to pay a little more if you want them to wipe it. read more

Maxim was so helpful, quick, and cheerful. Highly recommend recycling styrofoam here.

I've dropped off old electronics and cords for free many times here. I've watched them physically destroy a hard drive with sensitive information for me too. No need to wait for a special Earth Day event to recycle! Super easy drive through process. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They even take dense white EPS (styrofoam) #6 which is recyclable, but you cannot recycle curbside. Highly recommend for ease, and saving the environment. read more

I drove in, and Mr. Jay loaded my old TV onto a cart and took care of everything. Great service A++. I appreciate it, Thank you so much GreenCitizen read more

Excellent service available to our community. Friendly, helpful staff. Give them a try! read more

Awesome service - very easy drop off - friendly. I use several times a year and have always had a great experience

I visit GreenCitizen every few months when I've gathered enough electronics, appliances, cables, or clean styrofoam bricks to justify the trip. It gives me real peace of mind to know there's a good organization prioritizing sustainability in their business practices, where I can responsibly dispose of items that are normally difficult to dispose of. read more

Jay came out to the parking lot and offered carry the microwave from my car. He and the other person I interacted with there are very friendly. I also appreciate that they are open until 6PM - much more convenient than most other places. Rock-on read more

Over the years, I've taken several items to GreenCitizen, and I really appreciate their dedication to reusing or recycling as much as possible. My most recent drop off included a scanner, DVD/BluRay burner, and a 3TB Seagate drive. All still worked perfectly, but I no longer needed them. The $1 per pound fee was well worth knowing these items might be reused or would, at least, be recycled. It's very helpful that the Green Citizen website clearly lists the types of items they do and do not accept and how much, if anything, they charge. Some things are free; some things a $1 per pound. The staff is fast, friendly, and always helpful. When I arrived, Shanell came out and helped unload, weighed the items, and processed the payment. I don't think it took more than 10-minutes. read more

I was thoroughly impressed with the team. Their politeness, helpfulness, and expertise were evident. I especially valued their detailed explanation of the hard drive destruction machine and their diligent verification of the destruction process. read more

I wanted to properly recycle my old computer and monitor, plus some networking equipment. When I arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, doing a great job of explaining what they can accept for recycling. The lovely lady rolled out a dolly so that I can easily unload the electronics from my car. I also got a chance to talk to Maxim, who was fantastic, showing me what they actually do with the items we bring in. He had so much enthusiasm and passion for recycling and renewable energy! I highly recommend using GreenCitizen. They are awesome for our community and environment. Companies like them truly make the world a better place. read more

Such a great experience here, easy to find on Google maps and parking was available. The person who was working there, Maxim (guessed on the spelling), was so very kind, friendly, and helpful! I had multiple laptops and cell phones that I had been meaning to recycle responsibly for many years, and I finally found this place after looking through the Recology website for what to do with electronic waste. The website for this place is easy to navigate and the form to fill out is quick and simple. They take laptops and cell phones at no charge. If you have cords and other acceptable electronics, they charge by the pound. I had a bunch of cords of those laptops and other miscellaneous cords, and I paid only a total of $4. They are the friendliest humans and they show great appreciation to all of their customers who come to recycle responsibly. I highly recommend this place and it is definitely my go-to place now for the electronic waste recycling! :) read more

I love how helpful and focused on educating the customers about what to recycle, complete with handout and QR codes. Reasonably priced and centrally located. read more

Great. Super easy and quick drop off. Really good people. Highly recommend. Wwwwwwwwwwwww
