Lafayette is committed to achieving a 40% diversion rate from the landfill by 2030 and 60% by 2035. Electronic waste (e-waste) is critical to recycle properly to ensure hazardous materials to not enter the waste stream. Students, faculty and staff can dispose of e-waste through the following methods.

How to recycle e-waste

Faculty & staff e-waste recycling

For campus-owned items, faculty and staff can submit information about their electronic waste and batteries to Environmental Health & Safety to arrange for a pickup of the materials. Submit information to the form linked on the webpage here.

Accepted items can be found online here.

For personal electronic waste click here for additional information on how to properly recycle the materials.

Student e-waste recycling

Student e-waste recycling is now available and easy on campus. Bring small non-working items to the e-waste recycling boxes in Farinon basement, RISC 203, Skillman Library or Simon’s Market. All small items and vapes are accepted at these locations.

If you have larger items, fill out Public Safety’s large item form for pickup linked on the webpage here.

Accepted items can be found online here.

What to do with electronics that are still in good working condition that you no longer want or need

These items can be donated to the Campus Thrift Store at anytime by placing them in the donation collection bins outside of Pardee 25 or RISC 203.
