How to trade in your old electronics for some big savings during Earth Month in Toronto

This Earth Month, Best Buy Canada is giving Toronto residents a chance to eliminate their toxic e-waste with its Electronic Trade-In program.

We all have old tech lying around, and it’s our responsibility to make sure all the cords, batteries and electronics are responsibly handled — making sure our e-waste isn’t ending up in landfills.

In exchange for all of your eligible old devices, Best Buy Canada will match the value of your items and give out gift cards towards your next purchase at your nearest Best Buy location (excluding kiosks and mobile stores).

Just look out for those classic Blue Shirt associates and they will estimate the value of your gift card based on the model and condition of your old tech.

You can use those gift cards towards eco-friendly tech like the House of Marley Mini Bluetooth Speaker, LARQ PureVis Stainless Steel Water Bottle, and more.

Don’t have any old tech to trade in? No worries, you’re still able to declutter and recycle electronics like old cords, cables and keyboards.
