June 5th<\/sup> is World Environment Day<\/strong>, and Samsung invites people to continue making everyday changes that have a meaningful impact. This year, that means providing a #DramaFreeDropOff<\/em> that lets people responsibly say goodbye to electronics they are no longer in love with.<\/p>\r\n

While it is difficult to part ways with your first phone or the controller you used to win your favorite game, we want to make it a little easier. Instead of haphazardly throwing these devices into the trash to go to the landfill, you can easily recycle them at over 1,700 Samsung drop-off locations<\/a> across the country to contribute to a greener future. And when you do, your old tech products will add to the 1.2 billion pounds of e-waste Samsung has repurposed or recycled in the U.S. since 2009. In 2021, the most common e-waste that people recycled were TVs, desktops, monitors, laptops and printers\u00b9.<\/p>\r\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
