Wording on the DEQs website: "Anyone can bring seven or fewer computers (desktops and laptops), monitors and TVs at a time to participating Oregon E-Cycles collection sites for free recycling. Please note that computer peripherals (keyboards, mice, etc.) and other types of electronics are not included in this program."
In order to code for the e-waste legislation mandated changes, we need to know exactly what is required. These scenarios are an attempt to flesh that out.
