Recycling or trading in your Ring device

Recycling used electronics reduces electronic waste (e-waste) and helps the environment. Thank you for taking proactive steps to reduce your e-waste footprint. Before recycling your device, there are a few things we recommend.

Preparing your Ring device for recycling or trade-in

Downloading videos you want to keep

Removing a device from your account permanently erases all stored content, including videos and Snapshot Capture photos. Once deleted, videos and photos cannot be recovered. Learn how to download your Ring videos.
