Oregon e-Cycles Recycling Event
by Green Century Electronics Recycling (GCER)
Accepted: Anything with a plug or would run on batteries, in any condition. Including computers, cell phones/mobile devices, computer peripherals, monitors, networking devices, printers, televisions, AV equipment, cables/wires, batteries (alkaline, all types of rechargeable, button cell, cell phone, lead acid).
GCER’s priority is to refurbish eligible electronic devices such as computers, mobile devices and tablets. To help make it possible, please remove devices from cloud management services (such as iCloud, Google account, Samsung account) prior to drop off.
GCER uses proprietary software to clear the data, verify the data has been wiped, collect serial numbers and issue certificates based on this secure data destruction. In the event that a phone/device is still managed or tied to an account, the device will just be physically destroyed (no reuse).
Please have household batteries separated out by chemistry:
Alkaline (non rechargeable AA/AAA, 9v etc)
Ni-Cd (rechargeable AA/AAA, etc.)
Ni-Mh (rechargeable AA/AAA, etc.)
Li-ON (rechargeable AA/AAA, etc.)
Lithium Metal (non-rechargeable, button cell, AA/AAA, etc.)
Battery chemistry can be found on the individual battery
