Hello there

I have these really really ancient computers that we want to throw away. But we want to do the responsible thing and use a green waste disposal site. Does anyone know of such a place?

I heard there might be one near Northriding but not sure. We would prefer somewhere near Centurion if possible.
Any suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks - I went to Makro Centurion and the ebin has been removed. I will go again and just see if it has been placed elsewhere.

Put it out with the recycling. That is what I would do.

Nope they only collect paper from us for recycling. Don't think 10 or so PCs would go down well with them

How old is ancient? 286? 386? 486?

I hear China's cornered the market....

Kick up hell and demand to see the manager?

Alternatively.
You might want to try Universal Recycling. They used to be big guns in the e-waste thing when I was still interested, but I've been out of the loop for years. Maybe givethem a call and enquire?

Thanks Doo will see. GDI some are older. Some are still Dos pcs as Maestro worked on Dos lol
