The Western Upper Peninsula Electronics Recycling Program, a project of the Retired & Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP), is a local initiative to provide households and small businesses with an environmentally and economically sound solution to disposing of electronic waste.  The Western Upper Peninsula Electronics Recycling Program will accept the following items during collection events: 

•   Cellular Phones
•   Computer Monitors
•   Computer towers (Central Processing Units)
•   Copiers
•   Cordless Telephones
•   Fax Machines
•   Fluorescent light bulbs (4 foot--8 foot bulbs)

•   Printers
•   Scanners
•   Stereo equipment

•   VCR & DVD Players

Individuals who have generated electronic waste as a result of use within a household, are not restricted to the number of electronic devices brought to collection sites.  However, hazardous waste regulations do limit the amount of e-waste, which may be collected from businesses.  Therefore, businesses must contact the Retired & Senior Volunteer Program prior to a collection date, to receive approval of disposal amounts.
