Hardware Recycling

[Ben_Stanton]

Can anyone recommend a good company to take away about 30 old PC's and CRT's?

Preferably free would be good...or if anybody here wants them for some strange reason. Circa 6 years old....

Thanks,

Ben

Try SCC, they have a free collection untill 24th Dec

Not sure if it is for existing customers only but it may be worth a look (link below)

I've used and can highly recommend System 3 Services Ltd (Wisbech Web Design - Computer Repairs - Computer Disposal)

Try your local Freecycle group. I shifted a load to a charity that provides computer training to disabled kids. They were happy to take whatever we had.

We tried doing some work with these guy's and found them to be very very unreliable said they would pickup and didnt show up on four occaisions.

Only rang them the once very polite, came all the way from Lancashire to Durham and took everything I had got for them.
Received certificate 2 days later.

Are Schoolcare not the school section of c-c-c.co.uk?

If so isnt it a little bit naughty to recommend your own company?

Yes exactly right yabbadabba - making themselves look very poor there.

I can recommend LCWS, just had them come today, after I contacted them only yesterday! They were 30 minutes early as well and we got it all done and dusted no problems. Very happy to recommend them

We've had LCWS in a few times to remove old stuff, they even took away the CUB monitors... so they will take anything.
