Now you claim you "went there" and discovered they do accept recycling but only if you mail it.
One of those is necessarily false, since I doubt you went to the Apple Store in between your comments.
However, I suspect both your claims are wrong, because Apple stores absolutely accept old devices to recycle directly. (They also provide mail-in options for people who don't have one they can visit directly.)
From your many comments, it seems like you have an ideological axe to grind that somehow your device can't be recycled, despite abundant evidence to the contrary and lots of people here trying to help you.
