I dropped off several large sheets of styrofoam and an old desktop computer. They were super helpful with unloading, I was in and out in under 10 minutes, and they charged me only $3 for the styrofoam. Way easier than breaking it up and putting little bits in my trash every week, and way better for the environment. Super convenient off of 101.
They were very helpful and explained their services clearly. So nice to have a place to dispose of much electronics and electrical items without having to just dump them in a trash bin. Keep up the good work.
They'll take various electronics parts and equipment off your hands, fix up and repurpose some of it, and responsibly recycle the rest.
GreenCitizen recycling service is the best among all. The staff respond to email and call very quickly and friendly. Pickup service is extremely well. Highly recommended!
Drop off some laptops to recycle for free and payed to have their hard drives destroyed. Fast and informative service.
Been using Green Citizen many times very easy, friendly, and prefer to drop off my old electronics here than say goodwill. in and out in less than 2 minutes. with trunk full of electronics and wires. Would definitely use again.
I've brought computers, components, and a/v equipment here several times. The staff is always very friendly and helpful, and only sometimes have I paid a nominal cost ($1 today). The best place for a quick in and out drop-off of old/broken equipment.
I love this place for recycling my CDs and used electronics. They have extremely good customer service.
DO NOT BUY! This company sold me a broken laptop that had issues from day 1. I contacted them as soon as it was having issues and they told me it's normal. After several weeks later, the computer didn't turn on at all. Coincidentally, the 90 day warranty just ran out a week ago. I paid shipping to send it to greencitizen, and paid shipping to get it back. Greencitizen claimed that the logic board was replaced. After I received it, I shortly had the same problem again. And now they refuse to take back their broken laptop. DO NOT BUY OR DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY.
Great! Very good combination of communication and effective service. Cameron and Chris both did excellent job testing my purchase and showing functionality. Mgmt did a great job with emails! Thanks, now I do Green Citizen!
The staff is so friendly and efficient! I will definitely be using GreenCitizen for e-waste recycling again in the future!
It is so convenient - you drive up, they unload your stuff, you fill out a small form (less than a minute) and then you leave feeling virtuous because you have recycled fairly toxic products. No appointment needed. On top of that, they are very friendly. I would use them again. Make that: I will use them again.
Great customer service, very professional and accurate.
I have used Greener Citizen periodically for my recycling needs on appropriate items. They have always been unfailingly polite and efficient. Usually I'm out in less than five minutes. When I recently recycled an old CRT TV, they even helped me get it out of the car; and it was heavy!
We've been working GreenCitizen for a few years now and it's always a pleasure working with them. They have a great website that make e-recycling as easy as 1-2-3. Their pick-up crew is friendly, prompt and reliable and their email response time is great.
Green Citizen and the stuff are seriously committed to recycling. I live 5 hours north of the City, but whenever I come down, I bring the styrofoam that Green Citizen actually gets recycled, as well as any ewaste. They are providing a much needed service.
With a reasonable fee, pick up appointment can be made with GreenCitizen. They will collect all e-wastes and send to GreenCitizen. Go to their website and you know what GreenCitizen can recycle.
I needed to recycle a big screen tv that stopped working. Drove to Burlingame to drop it off, the staff made it very easy.
Super-easy convenient way to dispose of technology. Park right outside - walk in, hand over the stuff and pretty much done! I dropped off 3 laptops and various cables. Great customer service. I paid to have 1 hard drive destroyed since we couldn't wipe it clean. I appreciate the piece of mind. Will be back with additional phones, tvs etc.
Recycling Specialist. Very cheap computers. Cool people
This is the only place I've been able to find in the Bay Area that recycles styrofoam! Very friendly staff too.
I take all of my used equipment to Green Citizen when it needs recycling and I can't sell it to anyone or trade the item at a store.
When I arrived the employee greeted me with a smile and quickly took the products from my hands as it was quite cumbersome holding multiple things. Asked if I needed anything further. And told me to have a great day. He had a smile the entire time. Definitely great costumer service. I highly recommend this company.
Covid drop-off is so easy! Hope you continue it this way after the pandemic is done. I'm all about sustainability and so blessed that we have this service locally. I'm a private individual but founded a Zero Plastic Waste FB page to advocate for less plastics.
I've used this business off and on for years. Very convenient. Occasionally they charge a small recycling fee (probably required by law for certain items?).
The pick up that was scheduled to retrieve 13 monitors went incredibly smooth and painless. Thanks, GC!
Very helpful and convenient for electronic drop offs.
GreenCitizen is my go-to when it comes to electronics recycling. They are always friendly and quick to help when dropping things off. Plus, they are very affordable compared to other options in the area.
Fantastic service for businesses. They'll come and take away all of your old tech and gear. They even provide data destruction services. Always quick and a pleasure to work with.
So easy! An employee came right out with a cart and the whole drop off took minutes. Plus they refurbish what they can and responsibly recycle what they can't. Awesome!
Very quick and easy recycle experience. Dropped off a 48" flat screen TV after a terrible experience with BB (electronics store). Staff was very helpful and entire visit was less than 10 minutes.
Very happy with their service and the documentation given for the items picked up - for our business records. Easy process.
I had a 112 lb. CRT Sharp TV sitting in my living room for way too long taking up room and being an eye sore! My wife told me about GreenCitizen after a little research on the web. The customer service was very professional and personal. As a past president of a San Francisco Merchants Association and owner of a green company since 1984, The Health Paws, I highly recommend this company to provide for your electronic recycling services.
They accepted my laptops and drawing tablet. The process was simple and fast!
The folks at Green Citizen are fast, friendly and knowledgeable. What they do is so important. Everyone should use them.
Dropped off a toaster oven, small coffee machine, 5-cord surge protector, and blender which were all broken. Done in less than 5 minutes. Very happy to have disposed of these items responsibly!
Great customer service. And great service to the community as well. I have taken styrofoam, old TVs, old computers, keyboards, and old stereo systems here.
Very nice people, but $40 to recycle a few old computers.... The dumpster out back is a way better deal. I'm just sayin. [reply to owner] There were a couple of stereos and a electric car charger (I would have thought the 25' copper cable would have been worth something), and and old printer. I'm not knocking your business model. I just am not going to participate in that recycle model if it costs so much. The last printer I gave to a e-waste center didn't get charged for, and the dumpster out back (which belongs to my company), is both free and legal. As you perhaps could guess by the electric car charger, I am pretty new age. But I am not $40 worth of new age. I bet I am not the only one.
Excellent service. One of their staff was waiting outside when I was parking my car. The whole drop off process took less than 2 minutes. Would recommend them to others.
I'm glad I finally found out about this place! It's super-easy and fast to drop off unwanted electronics. Between this and Goodwill, I'm able to responsibly declutter my apartment with no problem.
So EASY and friendly! Glad to have gotten rid of free stuff, fee stuff and styrofoam with them.
Just dropped off two old CRT TV 20 and 32 , that they recycle for free. They were great and helped me unload out the car. Super fast and easy, in and out in less than 2 minutes.
I went in here with plastic bags full of old cell phone adapters and parts from an old computer, and they just took them, no questions asked. Easy enough.
I go roughly once a year and each time it's been quick and efficient and the cost has been reasonable. Glad they're here, give them a go.
They moved to Mountain View at 2500 El Camino Real, on the corner opposite Whole Foods and Target. Other than that, smooth transaction; they took a carload of old electronics and didn't seem too picky.
