E-Waste Disposal in Denver, Colorado

Does Denver pick up electronics?

The 2-pickup annual limit is restrictive for Denver's 715,522 residents. Denver Arapahoe Disposal Site charges $15-45 for self-haul, while 1-800-GOT-JUNK starts at $150 with their standard delays.
Dropcurb picks up electronics same-day in Denver for $99 flat — no wait, no annual limits, no restrictions.
Two pickups per year for 715,000 residents.
Denver's arbitrary 2-pickup limit leaves the majority of Colorado's largest city underserved. When Capitol Hill or Tech Center residents exceed their annual allowance, they're forced into expensive private alternatives or waste entire days at disposal sites.

What happens to your electronics after pickup
Electronics are recycled at R2- or e-Stewards-certified e-waste facilities. Devices are disassembled and sorted: circuit boards are processed for gold, silver, copper, and palladium recovery. Screens are separated for glass and lead processing. Plastics are shredded and recycled. Hard drives, SSDs, and other storage media are physically destroyed (shredded or degaussed) to ensure complete data destruction — no data leaves the facility intact. The $20 e-waste recycling fee covers the cost of certified handling and hazardous material processing.
