See the full list of accepted items here, and then drop them off at one of these spots:

3rd Street Entrance off Prospect Park West: walk-ins

Grand Army Plaza safety zone: walk-ins

Monday, October 28, 8am-2pm

Instead of living forever in a landfill, electronics will be repurposed, with proceeds benefiting the Prospect Park Alliance and City Parks Foundation. 100% of data destruction is guaranteed and the service is HIPAA compliant.
