Dell and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will host an Earth Day computer recycling event for consumers in the Washington metropolitan area on Sunday, April 22. The free event is part of Dell’s commitment to educating consumers about responsible computer recycling options and keeping information technology equipment out of landfills.

Washington, D.C.-area residents can recycle any brand computer, monitor, printer and other computer equipment by dropping off the items at the event from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the event site at 13th and E Streets, N.W.

Consumers are advised to remove all data from hard drives and any removable media such as disks, PC cards, flash drives and CD-ROMs. Televisions, stereo equipment and other electronic appliances will not be accepted.

The event is also being supported by the National Recycling Coalition and TechTurn. TechTurn will process the electronics equipment dropped off during the event.
