Where to recycle your old Xbox

Game over – but not to the landfill.

Have an old Xbox console or accessories that you need to get rid of?

Microsoft has a program to recycle your old products, accessories, packaging and batteries.

The State of Pennsylvania makes it mandatory to recycle computer and computer devices in the commonwealth’s Covered Device Recycling Act. The legislation was established in November 2010.
