Summary

What the Vendor says about itself

Wondering what to do with your old computer equipment? Dell Recycling offers computer owners a variety of environmentally sound, convenient and affordable options for unwanted computers - and the equipment does not have to be from Dell. Dell Recycling accepts any make or model of computer, notebook computer, monitor, printer or peripheral device.

To learn how Dell is helping business and public customers responsibly recycle their unwanted computer equipment, view a brief interactive demonstration.




Donate

Dell provides consumers a donation option for old computers. When you are ready for a new system there are neighbors in your community who could make use of your old one. Through Dell Recycling, consumers can donate their computers to the National Cristina Foundation to help disabled and economically disadvantaged children and adults in your own community. The foundation will pick up your computer at your door and put it to good use in your community.




Recycle

If recycling your computer is your preference, Dell offers an environmentally friendly method to dispose of outdated computer equipment that no longer has useful life. Dell is happy to accept any brand of computer, keyboard, mouse, monitor or printer. And Dell will pick it up at your home.
