I have an old computer. How do I recycle it?
Private Computers
For a privately owned, non-university computer, UCLA and the City of Los Angeles have an eWaste program at UCLA. The link is http://www.lacity.org/san/safe-ucla.htm. The service is available for all household eWaste. No ‘business’ waste is accepted.
LA County also operates a household waste program. See http://ladpw.org/general/enotify/Calendar_Template/Calendar.aspx
University Computers
UCLA Facilities Management will collect eWaste for a small fee. Submit an FSR. Information about their recycling programs is available at http://www.fm.ucla.edu/Recycling.html.
UCLA Equipment Management offers the Dollar $aver program. Campus departments may place free advertisements for the sale of surplus equipment including computers.
