Just as an FYI, you can bring electronics to Staples and they will have them recycled for you. Included are things like old laptops, tablets, computers, monitors, printers.
You can bring them cell phones too however...if the phone is in working condition (maybe you've upgraded because the old one was just too old) there are homeless shelters and battered womens' shelters who could definitely benefit from them, in most communities. I have an older Samsung smart phone that works just fine, but it doesn't have NFC technology and it was my first smartphone. As soon as I do a factory restore on it, I'll be bringing it to a drop-off for the battered womens' shelters in the area.
