Many of these items contain toxic (yet sometimes valuable) components such as heavy metal, wire, plastics that should not be disposed of in a landfill, and can often be recycled into new resources. We ship these materials to a vendor in Middlebury VT for proper recycling.
E-Waste should never be disposed of in the regular trash or recycling bins. Instead, please bring items to one of the Techno Trash collection boxes found in over 20 buildings on campus, including every residence all, the Davis Center and Howe Library.
The boxes also accept batteries and compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs for proper recycling.
If you have a large amount of techno-trash to dispose of, submit a Planon Service Request to Custodial/Recycling for extra pickup.
