Dell, Goodwill Expand Recycling Partnership

  • December 15, 2010
Dell and Goodwill Industries have expanded their 6-year-ol computer recycling program, adding more than 100 Goodwill donation sites to the program.

The new sites, in Delaware, Massachusetts, Nebraska, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island, are expected to divert about 5 million pounds of e-waste from landfills each year. Since partnering in 2004, more than 2,000 Goodwill locations participate in the Dell Reconnect recycling program.

"Since its inception, the Dell Reconnect program has created hundreds of green jobs for Goodwill employees who manage the recycling program," said Jim Gibbons, president and CEO of Goodwill Industries International, in a statement "Dell Reconnect has allowed Goodwill to expand its sustainability policy and eco-assessment practices."
