Ben_Stanton Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 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
Griffo Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 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) Dreaming of a Green Christmas?
matt40k Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 I've used and can highly recommend System 3 Services Ltd (Wisbech Web Design - Computer Repairs - Computer Disposal)
laserblazer Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 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.

If not, we are offering a FREE collection over the Xmas period! Xmas Collect.bmp

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.
bossman Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 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. @CPLTD: Maybe they didn't like you hehe! ;)

yabbadabba Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 We have used CCC for ecological disposal of computer equipment Contact [email protected] 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?
MkII Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 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.
john Posted December 17, 2008 Posted December 17, 2008 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
User3204 Posted December 17, 2008 Posted December 17, 2008 We've had LCWS in a few times to remove old stuff, they even took away the CUB monitors... so they will take anything.
