Re: e-waste collection

Our previous IT support team used Enviro Electronics https://enviroelectronics.co.uk/

I think they are national as they are based in Doncaster but collected our waste from Durham

That was certainly a consideration and something I've done before... but we have quite a few units to get rid of and I know our recycling centre start asking questions when you turn up with a business-amount of IT gear! [Thumb_up.png]

Re: e-waste collection

I have started using Green IT Disposal. They are free, and reliable in my experience of them. They are based in Manchester, but advertise nationwide collections. Your nearest office would be London.
There is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in.
