  3. Missouri computer manufacturer recovery program (RSMo 260.1050-260.1101)State program · MissouriMissouri residentsConditions applyFree
    How it works

    Under Missouri's Manufacturer Responsibility and Consumer Convenience Equipment Collection and Recovery Act, a computer maker must have a DNR-approved recovery plan before selling computer equipment in Missouri. The plan lets households and home businesses recycle the maker's branded desktop and laptop computers and computer monitors (no TV tuner) at no cost, by free mail-back, a staffed collection site or a collection event. Look up the brand on DNR's Registered Computer Equipment Manufacturers List. TVs, printers and phones are not covered, and retailers do not have to collect.

    Cost & rules
    • Desktop and laptop computers from household or home business use, bearing the maker's brand. A keyboard and mouse count only if sold with the computer.
    • Find the brand on DNR's Registered Computer Equipment Manufacturers List and use the maker's program: free mail-back, a staffed collection site or a collection event.
    • Computers bought before July 1, 2010 are covered only if the brand's maker still sells computers in Missouri.
    • Retailers do not have to collect computers. Computers from homes may legally go in the trash in Missouri, but DNR recommends reuse, donation or recycling.
