Donate Hardware

PC Hardware Donation Details

Computer4Kids accepts all computers, computer hardware, software keyboards, mice, and speakers. Because of the costs associated with recycling computer equipment, we suggest cash donations when you drop off old equipment that we will not likely be able to use. We do not do any recycling at our location. We break down items that can be recycled and then they are sent out to a 3rd party.

  • $30 for CRT monitors; $20 for CRT monitors when donating with a tower computer ( We will be phasing out the acceptance of these monitors in the coming months as they are no longer being made)
  • $10 for  printers except All In 1′s that are in excellent working condition.
  • We accept all LCD Monitors.
  • WE ARE TAKING ALL CPU TOWERS WITHOUT A RECYCLE FEE!
Please be aware, that while we accept most donations, we ask that anything donated is in working or repairable condition. We also ask that any items donated not to be outdated (no more than 7 years old) or unable to be fixed. If an item is determined to old or unrepairable, we may refuse to accept it at this location. Please do not bring us any items that you have found in the garbage as these items are most likely ruined. All fee’s associated with a donation, go directly into the recycling, reuse of items, and to C4K.

We give everyone a donation receipt for all donated equipment. You may be eligible for a tax deduction based on the current retail value of any donated items. Checkout eDeals for an estimate of your equipment’s current worth.

We also accept any type of electronic items such as iPods, MP3 Players, DVD Players, LCD Televisions, etc. We refurbish these items and give them away too!

Protect your privacy!

C4K does not erase hard drives as a standard practice. Before dropping off your PC, you can erase your hard drive’s data by going to www.killdisk.com and downloading a free version of their software. This utility erases all partitions and sectors of drives multiple times to comply with the U.S. Department of Defense data destruction standards.

For a donation of 10$ we will wipe your hard drive for you!

Why Donate?

Please keep in mind these compelling reasons to donate your computer to C4K:

  • Your donation will provide opportunities for at-risk youth in Yellowstone County and surrounding areas who are in desparate need of computers and computer skills.
  • Your computer will be reused (or recycled) and kept out of landfills.
  • Your donation is tax-deductible.
