  2. Michigan manufacturer electronics takeback (NREPA Part 173)State program · MichiganMichigan residentsFree
    How it works

    Under Part 173 of Michigan's Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act (2008), overseen by EGLE, manufacturers of computers, monitors, tablets, desktop printers and TVs sold in Michigan must register each year and offer consumers and small businesses (10 or fewer employees) a free, convenient takeback program, mostly by mail-back. Computer makers take back their own brands; TV makers take any brand. Up to 7 devices per person per day. Collection sites not part of a manufacturer program may charge.

    Cost & rules
    • Desktop and laptop computers, monitors, tablets and desktop printers. Computer manufacturers only take back their own brands. Phones, mice and keyboards are not covered.
    • Use the manufacturer's takeback program (mostly mail-back; EGLE lists registered manufacturers with links). A collection site or event that is not part of a manufacturer program may charge a reasonable fee.
    • For households and small businesses (10 or fewer employees) using the device in Michigan.
