If the older models are sent to landfill, the materials used to make the products are wasted. To find a commercial computer recycling service for your workplace or business, visit Business Recycling.Įvery year Australians purchase millions of computers and related components to replace older equipment. There are some recycling companies that offer national collection services for commercial quantities of computers. There are five organisations that recycle computers and computer accessories under the scheme: Ecycle Solutions, Ecocycle Pty Ltd, TechCollect, Sustainable Product Stewards Pty Ltd, The Activ Group Solutions Pty Ltd (Ecoactiv). Some recyclers will also accept modems and routers (check directly before dropping it off). That means, you can drop-off your old computer for recycling for free.Ĭomputer products accepted in the scheme include: monitors, laptops, keyboards, computer mice, printers, scanners, webcams, computer cables, chargers, hard drives, and motherboards. Every company that makes and/or imports computers into Australia is required to pay for the end-of-life recycling of these products. To help keep computers out of landfill, the Australian Government created the National Television and Computer Recycling Scheme. This makes electronic waste or e-waste a growing problem.
