IMPORTANT REMINDER BEFORE YOU DONATE ELECTRONICS
Please make sure to remove all confidential information before you donate electronics. Also, please note, when you donate electronics, State of California regulations requires that Goodwill collect your name, address, telephone number and signature, indicating that the donated device was used within California. Your collected information is kept confidential and is never used for advertising or marketing purposes.
Goodwill is committed to creating a sustainable environment. With each donation, you help divert materials from our crowded landfills.
Electronics Recycling
Technology is improving every day. Every time you upgrade your cell phone, audio system, DVD player, MP3 player, or other electronic device, please do your best to recycle your old or unwanted technology properly. Materials within electronics can be dangerous to the environment if disposed of improperly. Goodwill has made it easier than ever to donate! By donating your electronics, you help our environment and help people in our community get jobs.
Electronics Accepted
Goodwill accepts all types of electronics such as televisions, cell phones, computers, laptops, monitors, printers, tablets, video game consoles and more! However, we do not accept light bulbs or items with broken or cracked screens. Large household appliances may only be donated at our Outlets.

Computer Recycling
Goodwill and Dell have joined forces to create the Dell Reconnect Program. Goodwill’s vast network of Donation Centers and Dell’s industry leading experience in consumer recycling programs have been combined to make free computer recycling available in San Diego County.
About Dell Reconnect
- Your computers have value whether they are working or not. When donating a computer, you will get a receipt for tax purposes and you will be helping our environment and community.
- Dell Reconnect is managed at the highest standards for workplace and environmental safety. All collection and recycling practices are audited to ensure these standards are met.
- Dell Reconnect is designed for residential consumers who wish to recycle used computers, but Goodwill does accept computers from local businesses as a collector through the California Integrated Waste Management Board.
