Welcome to theCity of AuroraColorado

Did you know that electronics are banned from landfills in Colorado? To help Aurorans recycle their electronics and do so responsibly, the city of Aurora hosts a series of e-cycle events each year.

Electronics are collected and recycled by Techno Rescue, a local veteran-owned IT company. Techno Rescue can recycle more than just TVs and computers. Most items with a cord or a battery are accepted, including: desktops, laptops, cell phones, tablets, gaming equipment, consumer electronics and more. Please see below for the list of non-acceptable items. All data storage media are wiped and physically destroyed to protect your identity.

Electronic Recycling Events are taking place at Techno Rescue's Aurora facility located at 3251 Lewiston St., Suite 10, Aurora 80011.
