Failing that, such products would then be donated to local and state governments, schools, or non-profits. And in a move that will hardly make a dent in the federal government’s debt but would still be a welcome gesture by those irritated by government inefficiency and waste, government agencies would also be allowed to sell equipment.


The electronics, which is not in good condition and cannot be reuse, will be sent to recyclers. The GSA will only allow the dumped electronics sent to companies, certified by R2 and e-stewards. These two corporations are the only authorized companies to recyclethe goods.  In order to make some transparency the GSA Said they will develop some policies to make companies to submit the report of their work so far.
