Electronic Waste Collection Days, a free electronic waste recycling drive hosted by Indiana University. None of the electronics will be processed for resale. Everything that could potentially contain sensitive data, such as cell phones or computers, will be shredded. One hundred percent of the equipment dropped off will be recycled and kept out of landfills. Recycling services are provided by Apple. A list of acceptable items is included in the accordion above.
