Electronic Waste Warning

If it plugs in, charges up, or takes batteries, it can't be disposed of in your trash because it could harm you or the environment. Find out about electronics regulations.



This section shows you how to dispose of electronic waste and related items like cables, DVDs and more.

Businesses tend to generate more electronic waste than households. Because of the volume of waste that businesses produce, there are some charges associated with the disposal of business related electronics.

The following fees apply at the South Coast Recycling & Transfer Station and the Santa Ynez Valley Recycling & Transfer Station for Fiscal Year 2012-13 (July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013):
