I'm not sure who left all the electronics trash in the trash room, but in matter such as these, my eye turns towards Sudo...

Please know that E-Waste does NOT GO IN THE REGULAR TRASH! In fact, it is ILLEGAL to dump electronics with regular trash in California, and we can be fined for doing so. 

E-Waste is terrible for the environment, and needs to be recycled separately. So don't just toss a bunch of junk in the trash room and expect someone else to deal with it!

I would strongly recommend that Sudo sets up an e-Waste recycling container somewhere (maybe with a smaller container on the side for batteries) and then organizes a dropoff whenever it starts filling up. (Also a good place to scavenge for interesting parts for reuse, naturally!)

The oakland wiki lists a number of places that will recycle or reuse electronics waste, including cell phones, appliances, and batteries of all sorts:
