Why on earth is Best Buy making it harder and more of a hassle to recycle electronics? We used be be able to drop them in a bin and shop on the way out. Now we're told to wait in line for ten minutes.

Hi, Michael,
Thank you for your review. It can be frustrating to have to wait to have recycling processed, so we understand your disappointment. Best Buy had to discontinue recycling bins, as customers were using them as trash cans as well as putting in corrosive batteries that we do not accept. The trash and batteries were causing the recycled materials to be unable to handle or turn in for recycling. We appreciate all customers who are willing to wait in line to be assisted with recycling. If you'd like to formally document your review, please send a private message on social media and include Google Review 251259.
Our team would be happy to assist you on any of the following platforms:

They put it in the car and I was on my way .

I want to take a moment to recognize Angel at the Potomac Yard Best Buy for providing exceptional customer service!
I came into the store worried and frustrated about an issue with my computer, and I did not have an appointment. Despite that, Angel took the time to listen to my concerns, answer my questions, and assist me without making me feel rushed or like an inconvenience.
Not only was he helpful with my computer concerns, but he also went above and beyond by directing me to another Best Buy location regarding an item I had there. He also provided valuable information about why I couldn’t recycle my computer, making sure I understood my options.
Angel demonstrated patience, professionalism, kindness, and genuine care for the customer. It’s employees like him who make a difference and keep customers coming back.
I hope the management team at Best Buy Potomac Yard recognizes Angel for his outstanding service. He truly deserves the acknowledgment!
Thank you, Angel, for turning a stressful situation into a positive experience. Keep up the amazing work! 👏🏽💙
