A brief description of the electronic waste recycling program for institution-generated materials:

(From the SUNY Geneseo Environmental Health and safety website)

If you need to dispose of any electronic equipment, you must first fill out the SUNY Geneseo Equipment Transfer/Surplus Form and submit it to the Procurement & Property Control Services Department in Erwin Hall 218. Upon receipt of the Equipment Transfer/Surplus Form, the Procurement & Property Control Services Office will coordinate the efforts of the appropriate parties, such as Facilities Services, Computer Information & Technology, and Environmental Health & Safety, to facilitate proper disposal. All attempts should be made by the generating departments to bring their computer related equipment to CIT or all other electronics to EHS, if possible. Departments unable to hand deliver items will be asked to provide an account number to generate a work order so the moving crew’s time may be charged appropriately.


A brief description of the electronic waste recycling program for student-generated materials :

There are several electronic waste receptacles in student dorms that allow students to dispose of their electronics responsibly.
