    How it works

    Hawaii requires makers of electronic devices sold in the state to run recycling programs. Covered devices include computers, printers, monitors, laptops and tablets with screens over four inches, TVs with screens of nine inches or larger, and (since July 1, 2025) peripherals, routers, modems and game consoles. The DOH lists drop-off sites by county and some manufacturers' free mail-back programs.

    Cost & rules
    • Covered devices only, through a manufacturer program: staffed drop-off sites, collection services with a transportation fee, collection events, or a free mail-back offered by some manufacturers.

Before you go

  1. List each device and describe any damage to the operator.
  2. Back up your files and erase the device using the maker’s instructions.
  3. Ask whether documented data destruction is offered and what it costs.
