CJD’s CART program gives school districts a structured, ongoing approach to e-waste management in schools that requires almost no lift from your team. Computer recycling for schools no longer means coordinating a one-time haul or clearing out storage rooms on your own. Containers come to you, fill up on their own schedule, and get swapped out every one to three months without anyone on your staff having to manage the process.
From ongoing e-waste recycling containers to one-time technology cleanouts, here’s how CJD supports computer recycling for schools across Metro St. Louis.
More than a container, the CART program is an ongoing partnership built around your district’s natural technology cycle. We handle the scheduling, the route, and the swap so your team never has to think about it.
Bulk pickup for schools managing large equipment transitions or annual technology refreshes. No minimum load required.
End-to-end recycling for computers, laptops, tablets, networking equipment, and all classroom and office technology.
Secure processing for data-bearing devices with chain-of-custody documentation and Certificates of Recycling available upon request.
Physical destruction of data-bearing devices with documented Certificates of Destruction for compliance with FERPA and Illinois SOPPA student data requirements.
Whether you’re managing a single school or an entire district, we’ll build a program that fits your volume and your schedule.
Is the CART program really free?
Yes. Schools that generate regular e-waste volume qualify for free containers and free pickup. There are no per-trip fees and no contracts. We build each program around what makes sense for your district’s volume and location.
How quickly can containers be set up?
Containers can be deployed within a week of confirming your program. Once your cart is in place, we put your building on a fixed route and swap the full cart for an empty one every one to three months. We run routes throughout Metro St. Louis and Metro East, so most districts fall well within our service area.
Do we need to sort electronics before pickup?
No. Our team handles sorting on arrival. If you want to separate items by type ahead of time, that can speed up the process, but it’s not required. We work around what your maintenance or IT team has time for.
What happens to old computers and data after pickup?
All data-bearing devices are handled under our R2v3-certified process. Devices are assessed on arrival and data is either wiped or the device is physically destroyed based on its condition. Districts that need documentation can request full records through our device destruction and disposal program.
Can the program cover multiple buildings in our district?
Yes. We work with districts to recycle computers for schools across multiple buildings, placing containers in each facility and picking them up on a coordinated schedule. For large or one-time cleanouts across multiple locations, our e-waste pickup service handles those as well.
