Can I sell a locked iMac in Connecticut?
It depends on the lock. Carrier-locked devices are bought. Activation Lock (iCloud) and MDM locks must be cleared first, because an iMac still tied to an account or an organization cannot be reset for its next owner. We never unlock devices for anyone except the owner.

iMac specifics
What to know before you sell a locked iMac in Connecticut
Connecticut has a statewide electronics recycling law, so many old computers and screens can be dropped off free or cheaply. Putting covered electronics such as computers and monitors in the household trash is banned in Connecticut; selling a working iMac sidesteps the question entirely. Recycling only recovers raw materials, while selling a working iMac keeps it in use and puts cash in your pocket. Lithium-ion batteries never go in a Connecticut trash can.
- Apple silicon iMacs and the iMac Pro use Activation Lock; turn off Find My Mac.
- Office iMacs need release from company device management.
- Older Intel iMacs with a firmware password need it removed by the owner.
