E-Waste Disposal in Omaha, Nebraska
$79 Flat Rate for Single Items

The program restricts appliances and electronics while charging per pickup regardless of quantity. Douglas County Landfill offers self-haul for $25-40 per load, but requires truck access and manual loading.

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.
