 Regretfully, we cannot accept… microwaves, refrigerators, dehumidifiers & air conditioning units. We will accept…computer monitors and TVs (32” or smaller) when they are accompanied by a $10 per-item donation that can help us cover the cost of recycling the item.  Countryside will pick up at your home or office if you are disposing of 8 items or more.


If you have concerns, please ask us how to safely clean your hard drives prior to donating.
