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.

    • Only computer monitors and other computer displays without a TV tuner, plus a keyboard and mouse sold with a computer, from the maker's brand. TVs, printers, phones and other electronics are not covered.
