Where to Dispose Small Amount of E-Waste or Electronics in General?

Hi, I am wondering what are some better-than-landfill ways to dispose e-wastes and some still functional electronics. Not commercial, just personal ones.

There are still functional smartphones, headphone, mouse, keyboard, router, cables. They are low end ones that i won't bother to put on eBay or Craigslist.

Also some dead ones, including laptop, DIY electronics components, computer components, swollen/pregnant battery.

Thanks

Is anyone interested in helping the person asking this question, create/invest in a company that uses hydrothermal carbonization to turn human waste into a safe fuel & eco-batteries for cars and other electronic, while reducing carbon emissions, why or why not?

I just rescued these old keyboards practically new in box, are they still worth anything or are they glorified electronic waste? imgur.com/a/ibbyK2P
