ProTek Recycling

Recycling doesn’t have to be complicated. ProTek Recycling handles electronics, metals, plastics, and paper—all in one spot on the Upper East Side. The neighborhood sees a steady stream of locals dropping off old laptops, batteries, and office waste, making it easier to keep clutter out of landfills without the hassle of multiple stops.

You’ll find the center at 485 Madison Ave, New York, NY 10022, just a short walk from the subway. The area’s mix of residential buildings and small businesses means there’s always someone nearby looking for a responsible way to dispose of unwanted tech or packaging. No need to wonder if your old printer or cardboard boxes will end up in the right place—this is where they go to be sorted and processed properly.

Give them a call at (838) 218-5772 if you’re unsure about what they accept or when to swing by. For directions, check the map—it’s tucked between the usual Midtown bustle and the quieter side streets, where the pace slows just enough to make dropping off recyclables feel like less of a chore.
