Donate a Device

We accept new and used devices alike — laptops, phones, and tablets, whether brand new, gently used, or in need of repair. Every device is professionally wiped of personal data before refurbishment.

New devices welcome: Techno Bank isn't just for used or broken devices — a brand new laptop, phone, or tablet is just as valuable a donation, and often goes straight to a recipient without needing any repair work.
What we can work with: devices with a cracked screen, dead battery, slow performance, or minor hardware issues are exactly what our refurbishment interns train on — please send those our way.

What we can't use: devices that are water-damaged beyond repair, missing major internal components, or that you already know won't power on or hold a repair. Devices we can't fix become e-waste we have to dispose of responsibly, which costs the program money instead of helping it. If you're not sure, describe the issue below and we'll let you know.
