Students & Staff

Sponsor

    These Recycling Services are courtesy of Apple, Inc. They have assumed the financial burden of having the 18-wheeler trucks here to load the materials, as well as forklifts, pallets, shrink-wrap and any other necessities. Perhaps one of the most significant contributions is the labor they will provide. They are skilled laborers and have experience in handling heavy objects. No one will need to exit their vehicle upon arriving at the event site. The laborers will do all the unloading, which should reduce any wait time experienced. All items will be properly recycled in the U.S.

UT Property

    All UT property must be disposed of according to university procedures. Do not take UT property to the eWaste event for disposal.
