Recovery of electronic devices is tracked and attributed to the manufacturers of the electronic devices with RFID tags affixed to the electronic devices. For instance, an information handling system has a RFID tag integrated with its chassis at manufacture and is then shipped to a consumer. The RFID tag stores recovery information for use at recovery of the information handling system, such as the manufacturer, weight, recycle classification and a unique identification code. More detailed recovery information is optionally stored in a network-accessible recovery database by reference to information readable from the RFID tag. At its end-of-life of the electronic device is received at a recovery site and the recovery information is read by a RFID scanner. A recovery monitor applies the read recovery information to allocate recovery costs to the manufacturer and otherwise manage the recycling or disposal of the electronic device.
