US Consumer Recycling Program

Lenovo has partnered with AERCCR, a leader in environmentally sound Product Takeback and Regulatory Compliance, to offer free recycling of Lenovo and select IBM PCs^[1] for Lenovo’s home and home office customers ^[2].  

This service is available for Lenovo’s home and home office customers in the United States who want to dispose of their end of life computer systems and accessories in an environmentally responsible manner while reducing the use of diminishing landfill space.  For large enterprise customers, Lenovo’s Asset Recovery Service provides solutions for larger quantities of equipment from any manufacturer, including Lenovo.   Please note:  to recycle a battery only, please see Lenovo’s US recycling page for details on how to access the “Call2Recycle” program for recycling rechargeable notebook batteries. 

Lenovo's consumer offering provides a FREE recycling solution (shipping included) for all Lenovo branded products and select IBM branded products^[1], including system units, monitors, keyboards, and mice.  The program offers convenient options for recycling Lenovo products, including free home or office pick up, or you may drop your used Lenovo product off at over 30,000 US Postal Service locations nationwide.  Customers simply prepare the product for shipment and step through the instructions on the AERCCR webpage^[3] which includes detailed instructions regarding how to request a free prepaid label, instructions on how to schedule a free pickup, and information on how to find your nearest post office drop off location. 

Lenovo and its recycling partners are not responsible for information left on equipment returned to Lenovo or its partners for recycling. Lenovo recommends consumers use Lenovo's Secure Data Disposal tool or one of the variety of commercially available data-erasing software applications and follow the instructions associated with the software to ensure data is removed from the machine prior to returning for recycling.
