Dumpster Dive is back for 2023 and we have over 700 boxes ready for you to pick up! Starting at 12:00 p.m. MDT you will have the chance to dive into the SparkFun dumpster and get your very own 1 pound box.
When the clock strikes noon, click the image below to go to the Dumpster Dive product page (it will not be clickable until the product is live). If there are units still available, you will be able to add one to your cart and then proceed to check out. You can also find links to the product on the New Product carousel on the SparkFun homepage, as well as the New Product Page starting at 12:00 p.m. MDT as well.
What’s a Dumpster Dive? Between samples, customer returns, demo items and old stuff that’s been sitting on the shelves for way too long, we’ve amassed quite a few bins worth of various electronics. It ranges from one-off items, to items that are a little broken or ugly, to items that aren’t worth individually listing and selling. We didn’t like the idea of recycling them, since it could still be useful and worth getting into people’s hands. And so behold: the Dumpster Dive.
Rules for the Dive:
Product will be live until we run out! We will not be returning to the made-to-order format of the past few dives. No backorders will be available.

Please be aware that having a Dumpster Dive box in your Shopping Cart does not guarantee that you’ll receive one! The only way you’ll know that you are getting a Dumpster Dive box is to complete your order and receive a confirmation number.
Unfortunately, we were unable to extend the Dumpster Dive outside of the United States again this year. This decision is still based on shipping restrictions becoming stricter, compliance complications, and material handling safety concerns.
As a reminder: The Dumpster Dive is a gamble and the contents are not guaranteed. We will not provide tech support or returns on any of the goods since many are not products we ever supported, or they might be returns with unknown defects. We will be getting orders out as quickly as possible, but cannot promise same-day shipping.
