Valley Technology Outreach - environmentally friendly and civic minded reuse and recycling of technology equipment

"There are upwards of 300 million computers... produced every year. All of these electronics become obsolete or unwanted, often within 2-3 years of purchase. This global mountain of waste is expected to continue growing 8% per year, indefinitely."

Our Mission

Valley Technology Outreach (VTO) is dedicated to the facilitation of environmentally friendly and civic minded reuse and recycling of technology equipment.

What does VTO do?

Valley Technology Outreach collects unused and decommissioned computer equipment from businesses, schools, organizations, and individuals to be refurbished and/or recycled. Refurbished computer products are sold at significantly reduced prices to other qualified non-profit organizations in need of such equipment while all other equipment is recycled in a completely green and environmentally friendly manner.

VTO works with several local organizations who aid men and women who are struggling to reenter the workforce. VTO provides these eager job seekers with employment, training, and experience to help them on their path to a new career.

Please consider making a donation of $150 to Valley Technology Outreach to purchase an administrative computer for a local charity. You can use, the PayPal donation button below.

Why Donate to Valley Technology Outreach?

Consumers need a safe, effective and environmentally responsible solution for recycling old/unused technology equipment. Area non-profits need better access to low cost, reliable, standardized technology equipment.

VTO aims to meet all these needs by accepting donations of unwanted technology equipment, erasing the data in compliance with governmental standards, and refurbishing what can be refurbished to sell to small non-profits at a low cost, and disposing of what can’t be recycled in the most environmentally friendly manner possible. VTO is dedicated to proper destruction of data, erasing all personal information from computers donated. VTO is also a cost effective way to recycle your used technology equipment. Valley Technology Outreach charges $5 for large technology equipment such as monitors, computers and printers – which is the same price charged by the local dumps.
