Why host an event

Every garage in town has a pile of old electronics.

People keep old computers, monitors and phones because getting rid of them takes a trip across town and a worry about their data. Give them one Saturday, one parking lot and a crew that unloads the car — and watch the line form. For your organization, it’s a feel-good community event that costs nothing.

2.7M

tons of consumer electronics were thrown out or recycled in the US in 2018 alone.

38.5%

of them were recycled. The rest went to landfills, incinerators or the back of a garage.

Event or bins?

Two ways to host. Both free.

Have a parking lot and want a big one-day drive? Book an event. Office tower or lobby with no room for a truck? Collection bins sit inside for as many weekdays as you like.

Common questions

Questions, answered.

Still wondering? Text us at (816) 838-6298 or call (816) 295-2334.

Is hosting a recycling event really free?

Yes. There’s no charge to host a Saturday electronics recycling event at a business, school, church, HOA, apartment community or other organization in the Kansas City metro. Our crew brings the truck, unloads every car and recycles everything at no cost to you or the people who drop off.

What do we need to host an event?

An open Saturday (we hold one event per day, and never on Sundays), at least a week’s notice, and — this one is required — a parking lot with enough room for our 26-foot box truck to pull in, park and stay for the whole event.

How long does an event last?

You choose the start and end times when you book, anywhere between 8 AM and 5 PM. A four-hour morning, such as 8 to noon, is an easy place to start.

Who can come to the event?

You decide: just your employees, your residents or members, or the whole neighborhood. Tell us your expected turnout when you book so we can plan.

What can people bring?

Computers, laptops, tablets, cell phones, monitors, printers, keyboards, cables, chargers, hard drives and most small electronics. We don’t accept CRT tube or plasma TVs, appliances or hazardous waste. For flat-screen TVs, ask us when you book. The full list of what we accept covers everything else.

What happens to the data on the devices?

Everything goes straight to our North Kansas City facility. Drives and phone storage are wiped to NIST 800-88 or physically shredded or drilled, and nothing goes to a landfill. More on our data destruction process.

Can we get a certificate for our records?

Yes. Certificates of Recycling and Data Destruction are free for the host organization — just tick the ones you need when you book.

We don’t have a big parking lot. What else can we do?

Book free collection bins instead: we drop them in your lobby, mailroom or office on a weekday and pick them up on the weekday you choose. See how collection bins work.

Which areas do you serve?

The Kansas City metro on both sides of the state line — roughly 25 miles from our facility in North Kansas City, including downtown KC, Overland Park, Olathe, Lenexa, Leawood, Lee’s Summit, Independence, Liberty and the Northland. Farther out? Call (816) 295-2334 and ask.

Ready when you are

One Saturday.
One parking lot. One full truck.

You pick the date and tell your people. We bring the truck, unload every car and wipe every drive.

Computer Recycling LLC runs free Saturday electronics recycling events for businesses, HOAs, apartment communities, schools, churches, nonprofits and property managers across the Kansas City metro.
