Goodwill's Reconnect Program
Goodwill is now accepting all types of electronic equipment, including computers, printers, CPU’s and monitors at all retail locations. Goodwill’s Reconnect Project is an alliance between The Helping Hand of Goodwill Industries and Dell. Items that are donated are shipped to the Plant where they are disassembled by employees from the Extended Employment Services program.
It is EASY – you just need to bring your unwanted computer equipment to Goodwill just like other materials you want to donate.
It is FAST – Goodwill staff will help you with unloading your items that you bring in to donate.
It is SAFE – All computers hard drives are cleaned in a secured environment before being sent off to be recycled. It is FREE – there is no charge to donate any equipment, including monitors.
