New Partnership with Dell Reconnect
Recycling is Part of Our Way of Life!
For over 100 years, The Salvation Army has been reselling donated goods in our thrift stores and recycling what we can — generating vital funding for our Adult Rehabilitation Centers and keeping usable items out of landfills. Sustainability isn’t new to us — it’s part of who we are.
New Partnership with Dell Reconnect

Customers can simply gather their old devices, securely erase their data, and visit one of five Salvation Army donation locations in the Las Vegas area to drop off their items with ease. We accept all computer electronics and accessories of any brand, in any condition, completely free of charge. Plus, donors can receive a tax deduction for their contribution, making this effort both environmentally responsible and personally rewarding.
