DONATING EQUIPMENT:

FREE GEEK accepts any computers and any computer related hardware, in any condition. If you are donating equipment that is known to be broken or a computer older than a Pentium I PC or PPC Mac, we do ask for a donation to help with our processing costs.

There is a $10.00 disposal fee per monitor, working or not, no exceptions (includes computers with built-in monitors).

We accept the following: (Please note the fee or suggested donation)

Preparing your donation for drop-off:

Please bring as little packaging and boxes as possible. Please recycle the boxes for your equipment through your curb-side recycling program. We no longer recycle Styrofoam, but you can drop it off at the Metro Recycling Transfer Station, call 503-234-3000 for more information.

Recycling software and manuals:

We no longer accept all software and manuals. The paper and cardboard packaging can be recycled in your mixed paper curb-side recycling bin. The portion that cannot be recycled through your curbside program can be brought to FREE GEEK, such as the floppy diskettes, CDs and jewel cases. If you have the manuals for specific pieces of equipment (i.e. motherboards) please bring them with the equipment.

Extra Credit:

Recycling computers is labor intensive. Doing any of the following to prepare your equipment for donation will help us speed the processing and recycling of your equipment.

Untangle all cords and cables. Coil them up with a rubber band or twist tie.

Attach power adapters (AC adaptors, transformers) to their associated equipment (such as powered speakers, printers or external modems) as best you can, we suggest wrapping with clear packing tape.
