Recycling your laptop is a great way to help our environment. E-Waste is an ever growing problem. It is estimated that in the U.S. alone around 30-40 million computers will be discarded to landfill sites in the next few years.
Old laptops are a dangerous source of toxins and carcinogens if not disposed of properly.
However, they are also a valuable source of secondary raw materials. Computer hardware contains materials such as tin, silicon, iron, aluminum and even copper or gold.
Old laptops can also be upgraded by refurbishment companies and sold on as new.
There are lots of different companies prepared to offer good money for your old or unwanted equipment.
Here is our guide to some of the best available:
Gazelle are the no.1 company for recycling and refurbishing old electronic goods in the U.S.
