How much does it cost to book an E-Waste collection?
Collection charges are calculated on quantity, location, accessibility of the assets, and the number of staff required to collect it. Our standard charges start at $120 (ex gst)* for a single load / one person to attend your site with onsite parking. We are able to collect small and large loads. Collection charges may be waived for some NFP organisations. Please contact us today for an estimate.
Do you accept batteries?
We accept some types of batteries for drop off – some types will incur a recycling fee if there is over 1kg.
Laptop batteries – no recycling fee
UPS or car batteries – no recycling fee
Mobile phone / electronic device – Lithium Polymer: $5 per kilo recycling fee
Rechargeable batteries – Ni-Cd / Nickel–Cadmium: Not Accepted
Household single use batteries (AA, AAA, C, D, 9v) – Alkaline / Dry Cell: Not Accepted
I only have one or two items to recycle?
We have listened to our customers about the financial and environmental cost of small collections and recently added a service called ‘Courier Collect’. Instead of our vans making a scheduled collection at your site, you simply pack and label your items ready for collection by our courier. We can even provide boxes and packaging. This is ideal for small electronics, a few laptops or smartphones, boxes of cables etc. Please call for more details.
What are fee rebates?
IT equipment is assessed based on the several factors including; resource / scrap metal value and cost of disposal. Often there is enough residual value in the equipment to cover the entire collection fee.
What is computer recycling?
When it comes time to throw out that old PC and upgrade to a newer model, one of the biggest mistakes that users can make is to throw it out as they would any other type of waste. Read more about computer recycling here.
