The term "E-Waste" is loosely applied to consumer and business electronic equipment that is near or at the end of its "useful life." Many of these products require special care for disposal and, by California law, are banned from the trash.
A "small e-waste" collection bin is located in the North Lobby of the Chemistry Building. Our Machine Shop accepts large, University-owned e-waste; please submit a request online (Chemistry Salvage and E-Waste). Certain e-waste items, like large toner cartridges, may be sent back to the manufacturer or intercampus to "Mail Services - Recycle."
