Turning in computers for cash

The residual value of old desktop computers is determined by the presence of (precious) metals. Experience shows that this is the same for most desktop PCs because they consist of a metal casing containing a motherboard to which components are attached. These components include a power supply, processor, memory cards and a hard drive. Check our price list to see what you get back per kilo for handing in complete computers or loose parts at our location.

In addition to a sustainable method of reuse or recycling, we can, if desired, destroy the privacy-sensitive data or company data still present on your old computers including the issue of a destruction certificate. You will receive this certificate after submission as proof of destruction at the currently applicable rates for data destruction upon submission.

Please note! If you turn in old computers for data destruction and want a certificate, you will not receive a fee or kilogram price. In addition, there are costs involved.

Turn in computers with proceeds

If you have removed the data yourself and do not need a certificate, you will receive the best recycling prices for your old computers when you turn them in. Check out the price list.

Turn in for data destruction with fees

Receive a certificate of destruction for the data on your computers for fees and no fee. Pre-registration is required.
