STRAIGHT ANSWERS
Frequently asked questions
Can solar panels go in a normal trash bin?
Usually, that is not the best route. Rules vary by state and by panel type, so the safest first step is to identify the panels and location. We can help you determine a practical disposal or recycling path.
Do you take broken or non-working panels?
Damaged and non-working panels can still be evaluated for recycling. Tell us whether glass is cracked, frames are bent or panels are mixed with other equipment.
Can you help with only a few panels?
Yes. We ask for quantity because the best option for three panels can be different from the best option for three hundred.
Is pickup available?
Pickup depends on location, quantity, access and timing. Enter your ZIP code and approximate panel count so the request can be reviewed.
What does solar panel recycling cost?
Costs vary with panel type, quantity, condition, location and transportation. We collect those facts first so you can receive a useful answer instead of a generic price.
What if some panels still work?
Say so in the form. Reuse can be considered before recycling when the panels are suitable and there is a practical destination.
