Any local electronics recycling service should handle them properly. My town offers this for free on occasion while a commercial service may charge you. Batteries could be recycled at Home Depot, Staples or many other such businesses.

However, EOL doesn't mean the death of the devices. It means that updates won't be provided (like many other electronics) and the free 7 day plan disappears. You can continue to use the cameras in particular by subscribing to a plan and/or updating your existing base to a SmartHub to allow local recordings, if that's sufficient for your usage.
