New Opportunity to Recycle Personal Computer Equipment, Parts and Electronics

The collection of privately owned used, extinct or broken computer equipment, parts and electronics is a new service the University of Arkansas Computer Store will provide. The campus community can drop off their personally owned electronics the second Friday of every month between the hours of 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. at the Garland Center dock.

A Computer Store associate will be available during the allotted hours to assist and supervise drop-offs. This service will only be available the second Friday of every month to ensure the collected items are acceptable, non-hazardous, and not university owned. University-owned equipment cannot be dropped off; if you need to dispose of university-owned equipment please visit surplus.uark.edu for more information.
