E-waste removal across Sydney
Most homes collect electronics faster than they get rid of them, which is why e-waste removal tends to mean a whole cupboard at once. The old plasma behind the couch, two dead printers, a tower PC and a shoebox of chargers for phones you no longer own.
Photograph the pile and we'll send a fixed price. We carry it out, bringing a second person for the heavy old screens, and it leaves with the truck.

Fixed price from photos
Getting an e-waste removal quote from photos
One wide photo of the pile usually does it. If there are several screens, count them and tell us the rough sizes, because a big old tube TV weighs far more than a flat panel of the same width.
If the electronics are scattered through the house, a photo of each spot is fine. We'll price it all as one job.
Fridges, washers and other whitegoods can go on the same visit. Just include them in the photos so the quote covers everything.
Photos that help us quote
- The whole pile, plus a count of screens and rough sizes
- Any old CRT TV or heavy rear-projection set
- Electronics in other rooms or the garage
- Stairs or tight spots between the items and the street

Step 2: Get a fixed quote
We'll confirm we've got your photos straight away, then send a fixed quote.
Step 3: Approve and book
Happy with the price? We book the next available slot.
Step 4: Gone the day we come
We load it all, sweep up and take it away. The price is fixed: you pay by card once it's loaded, or by a secure card payment link if you're not home. No deposit.
Prices include GST, labour, loading, tip fees and the NSW waste levy.
Clear your data before we collect
We don't offer data destruction, so anything personal on a device is your job to deal with first. Once a computer is on the truck, there's no getting it back.
For laptops and phones, back up what you want and do a full factory reset. For desktops, the simplest option is to pull the hard drive and keep it, or have it destroyed separately.
- Back up photos and documents you want to keep
- Factory reset laptops, tablets, phones and smart TVs
- Sign out of accounts and remove the device from them
- Take out hard drives you'd rather keep or destroy yourself
FAQ
E-waste removal: common questions
Is a single old TV worth booking for?
It can be, particularly an old tube set, which is a two-person lift, so we bring a second person for it. TV and computer disposal can be bundled with other rubbish in one visit, so photograph anything else that's going too.
What counts as electronic waste collection?
Anything with a plug or a circuit board: screens, computers, printers, audio gear, consoles, small kitchen appliances and the leads that go with them. Electronic waste collection doesn't cover bulk batteries.
Do I need to take the batteries out of remotes and laptops?
A laptop battery or the cells in a remote are fine left in. What we can't take is a box of loose batteries or a swollen, damaged lithium pack.
Can you collect from an office as well as a house?
Yes. A storeroom of retired monitors and printers is picked up the same way as a house job. The photos and building access details are all we need to price it.
Will you wipe the hard drive for me?
No. Reset the device or remove the drive before we arrive. We take the hardware only.
