Our Partners
The vast majority of the IT equipment that we recycle is offered at no charge to our partners organization. This ensures that wherever possible, we manage to maximise re-use, rather than crushing and recycling perfectly good working equipment. We also ensure that the ownership of computer equipment is transfered to those whose need is greatest.
