Campus Electronics Recycling Collection

Electronic products are the fastest growing portion of the solid waste stream, contain hazardous materials like lead, and are not allowed in landfills. Electronics also contain valuable metals, plastics, glass and others that can be resold for reuse in other products (Illinois Electronic Products Recycling and Reuse Act).

Therefore, any electronic equipment belonging to the university must be recycled in accordance with the OBFS Equipment Disposal Methods.

The Office of Sustainability organizes the Campus Electronics Recycling Collection (CERC) program that centralizes the collection once a year. All you need to do is bring your OBFS paperwork and your items to the collection location, and we take care of the rest!
