Electronics Recycling Melbourne — E-Waste with Recoverable Metals
Electronic waste — e-waste — is one of the fastest-growing waste streams in Australia, and most of it shouldn't be going to landfill. Old computers, servers, TVs, and industrial electronics contain copper wiring, aluminium chassis, steel frames, and in some cases small amounts of precious metals like gold and silver in circuit boards. These materials have real value.
We accept e-waste at our Coburg North yard and process it through licensed recycling channels. For electronics with significant metal content — large server racks, industrial control panels, copper-wound motors, and transformers — we'll pay you cash based on the recoverable metal content. For smaller consumer electronics like laptops and phones, we accept them for responsible recycling at no charge.
Businesses doing IT refreshes or office fit-outs often end up with pallets of old equipment. Rather than paying for e-waste disposal, bring it to us — we'll assess the metal content and either pay you for it or take it off your hands for free. Either way, it's a better outcome than landfill.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I get cash for my old electronics?
It depends on the metal content. Large items with significant copper, aluminium, or steel — servers, industrial panels, motors, transformers — earn cash. Small consumer electronics like phones and laptops are accepted for free responsible recycling.
Is it safe to bring electronics with personal data?
We recommend wiping or destroying storage devices before bringing electronics in. We don't offer data destruction services — that's something to do before you bring the equipment to us.
Can you collect a large e-waste load from our office?
For large loads from businesses doing IT refreshes or office fit-outs, we can discuss collection. Call 0449 060 697 to discuss your specific situation.
Why shouldn't I just put old electronics in the bin?
E-waste contains hazardous materials — lead, mercury, cadmium — that are harmful if they go to landfill. It's also illegal to dispose of certain electronics in general waste in Victoria. Bringing them to us ensures they're processed responsibly.
