Perhaps not entirely surprising, but getting rid of old, non-working/useless electronics in Buffalo is harder than one would expect. This is especially true if you’re trying to recycle at a time other than one of the quarterly e-waste disposal events run by the city.
After several phone calls, here’s the solution: Electronic Recycling Technologies. Their website gives the wrong address, as they are now at 95 Dorothy Street. To get there, take Gilbert off of Clinton to Dorothy. The incredibly pitted driveway is on the side, and drop-off is in the back. No fee or appointment necessary for bringing the odd busted TV or circa 1995 computer between 8:30-4:30, M-F.
Easy, as it should be.
