  3. Maine e-waste product stewardship program (38 M.R.S. §1610)State program · MaineMaine residentsConditions applyCost not listed
    How it works

    Under Maine's e-waste law, manufacturers pay to recycle TVs, computer monitors, laptops, tablets, e-readers, printers, game consoles, portable DVD players, digital picture frames and other screens of 4 inches or more. Each town must give its residents a collection site or event. Households, K-12 schools, and businesses and nonprofits with 100 or fewer employees bring covered devices to their town's site; some sites charge a small fee. It is illegal to throw away CRT and LCD screens in Maine. Cell phones are not covered.

    Cost & rules
    • Bring covered devices to your town's collection site or event; some sites charge a small fee.
    • Covers computer monitors, laptops and tablets; DEP's list does not name desktop towers. Accessories are not covered but are often taken.

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.
