Computer, Laptop & Electronic Recycling
Here at Billy The Computer Man, we take recycling and the Earth very seriously. As technology explodes and older machinery is phased out, the amount of unwanted pieces of equipment will grow.
Along with our full service one stop approach, for PC building, repair and maintenance, Network services, Printing, Graphic Designing, Web Design and Hosting, we do process unwanted and expired units from our clients. We take all steps to destroy all sensitive data, render it unrecoverable, break down all the units and channel them to the proper recycler, or donate eligible units to those with need or not able to afford a computer on their own.
We are able to accept units from non-clients, but due to the cost factor involved, and the size of our facilities, we can only accept certain types and amounts of items. Please contact us, Click here, and select "Recycling Services". Please make sure to give us a name, a way to contact you, and a list of what you need recycled. If we are unable to assist you, we will guide you in the right direction to get your issue resolved.
Yes there is a cost involved to recycle and process the material. The costs are manpower and time involved to delete your data, and to break down equipment. Shipping off the plastic to the proper center costs money. Monitors which are highly toxic, actually cost between 6 to 15 dollars PER UNIT, depending on size to properly send it off to its safe disposal. This is a small amount to pay as opposed to it filtering into the water table or the soil and making you sick or possibly die from the effects.
What we actively look for (mainly for donation purposes):
- Legal Operating System Software w/ license (MAC OS, MS DOS, IBM OS/2, Windows 3.x up to XP)
- Office Productivity Software
- Childrens Software
- Any Apple Macintosh Computers
- Older IBM & IBM Compatible PC's from the 1980s (5150s, PC JR, PS/2, ATs, XTs, 286, 386, 486 - We preserve classic computers. )
What we usually reject:
- Anything over 50LBS
- All CRT Monitors (No PC's along with the monitors)
- Junk/Incomplete Items (PC Cases only or systems parted out)
- Software without licensing
These lists are not inclusive but a guide for what we are on the lookout for. Please contact us for more information.
