Computers contain valuable materials such as metals and plastics, which can be reintroduced into the production chain through reuse. By turning in your old computers to Krommenhoek Metals, you help give these materials a second life. This reduces the demand for new raw materials and limits the amount of waste sent to landfills. In addition, we ensure that harmful substances, such as lead and mercury, are removed in a responsible manner. In short, by turning in your old computers, you’re contributing to a more sustainable world.
Is your organization looking to turn in multiple old computers? If so, please use our pickup service.
There’s no need to pack up your old computers. We’ll take care of that when we come by, using our own packing materials. Of course, we can also take any related peripherals, cables, or other electronics with us right away. Easy, right?
This pickup service is free in the following cases:
- At least ten computers that are no more than five years old and suitable for reuse. Or
- At least 250 kg of computers, peripherals, cabling, and other electronic equipment *.
With those quantities, we can use the residual value of the equipment to cover our pickup costs. And when it comes to very large quantities, there may even be some profit in it for you! Please contact us for a proposal.
* Excluding printers and brown or white goods.
