Is there a charge or fee to recycle computers, monitors or TVs through Oregon E-Cycles?
No. Participating Oregon E-Cycles collection sites must accept computers, monitors and TVs from anyone bringing seven or fewer items at a one time. However, there may be a charge for at-home pick-up, curbside services, or other premium services. An Oregon state law passed in 2007 requires electronics manufacturers to pay Oregon E-Cycles. Oregon E-Cycles is an example of product stewardship, where the company that makes a product is responsible for recycling the product. Manufacturers include the costs of recycling their products in the cost of doing business.
