      Yes! Goodwill has partnered with Dell for the Dell Reconnect program for a free drop-off recycling program where consumers can responsibly recycle any brand of unwanted computers or other computer equipment in any condition.

      We accept all desktop and laptop computers including monitors, towers, keyboards, mice, cables, speakers, printers, scanners, and hard drives.

      Consumers are responsible for removing personal data from the hard drives and other storage media before donating to Goodwill. Neither Goodwill nor Dell is liable for data removal or protection. Dell also performs intensive third-party audits of its recycling program – more than 150 first-tier audits have already been performed to ensure the strictest standards are being followed.

      Visit www.dell.com/reconnect for more information.

      You’ll like us when it’s tax time! We’ll be happy to provide you with a receipt.

      Under the new tax law it is the donor’s responsibility to make a detailed, itemized list of every item donated, and its fair value. By law Goodwill cannot tell you what your donated items are worth.
