For businesses and organisations
E-waste collection and recycling
We collect unwanted IT equipment from businesses and organisations across the Hunter. What can be reused is refurbished; everything else is dismantled locally and sent to Australian recyclers.
E-waste figures for FY2024/25
Processed in FY2024/25
- 81.2tonnes of ICT equipment processed
- 77.2tonnes recycled
- approx. 4tonnes refurbished
What we collect
IT equipment of all kinds
We offer pickup and drop-off for a wide range of IT-based e-waste, including:
- Computers
- Laptops
- Printers
- Networking equipment
- Data storage devices
- Other IT equipment
We work with businesses, government and community organisations, and don't accept household e-waste. For household e-waste, Recycling Near You lists drop-off points by suburb.
Data-bearing devices are sanitised in line with NIST SP 800‑88 Rev. 2 before anything else happens to them. How secure data destruction works.
How collection works
Collection that fits around your organisation
We offer on-site collection solutions tailored to the needs of each customer.
Pickup or drop-off
We collect from your premises, or you can drop equipment off to us at 150 Maitland Road, Mayfield NSW 2304.
Urgent removals
If you need equipment removed or data destroyed urgently, we can arrange it on an as-required basis.
Where it goes
Reuse first, then recycled through Australian recyclers
Everything we collect is weighed in on calibrated floor scales and handled in our Mayfield workshop. If equipment can be refurbished and reused, it is; getting further use out of a device is more energy efficient than stripping it down for its materials. Refurbished devices go to people in need through local not-for-profit and charitable organisations.
What can't be reused is dismantled into material streams and weighed out to our downstream recyclers: Mint Bio in Smithfield, Australian Metal Recyclers in Rutherford and InfraBuild in Hexham.
But I have a managed services provider?
That's fine; there's no conflict. Most managed services providers aren't set up for e-waste: equipment at the end of its service life, or not worth repairing. That's the part we handle. If your provider has already wiped the devices, we still sanitise every data-bearing device again before anything else happens to it.
Get started today
Got a comms room that looks like this?
Chances are you have an ICT room full of old gear that hasn't seen the light of day in years. We'll clear it, deal with the data and document every step.
