Tara SdlF (1/5 stars, 2 months ago): They were very nice there but ever since I dropped off a desktop computer there I get daily attempts to access my Microsoft account. I have no payments or software downloads connected to it and there's no cloud storage or anything but I would never use that account again. And the emails (before I filtered them) were annoying. And it keeps happening even though I disconnected the account from all computers. So that's problematic for me. It never happened before I took my device there. I thought I'd wiped it well enough but I guess not. I signed into my account just to show the latest activity in the attached screenshot. Again this never happened (other than my own sign-ins) before I took my computer here. So if you do go super-wipe the computer. And consider keeping the hard drive maybe. EDIT: I appreciate the response as it may help others. I'm literally a software engineer so I understand that my Microsoft account remains secure. And I can only tell you that there were no attempts prior to dropping off my desktop computer and there have been multiple daily attempts within 72 hours of dropping it off. Everyone's information has been part of multiple data breaches so fortunately no one can prove that this business is at fault. My advice to be very careful to wipe the hard drive--and maybe just pulverize it--stands.

Frederique Lavios (5/5 stars, 2 months ago): This company is amazing. They take a huge variety of items and when possible try to repair appliances rather than just recycle them. I also appreciate that the repaired items go to underserved communities.

D Robs (5/5 stars, 6 months ago): Amazing! I am so glad I found this place they recycle all the things that I don't want to throw in the trash but don't know what to do with. They took media batteries electronics and old cables etc. Very nice staff Chris is awesome! It was a nominal fee to get all this stuff out of my place I will be returning to Green Century from now on! A++
