COVID-19
We are working under Alert Level 2 conditions. All our services are running normally but please follow the procedures we have in place to protect our staff and the community.
For official information visit the Government COVID-19 website.
Repair delays
Due to staffing changes and having a technician on holiday there will be delays in assessing and completing some repairs.
Pricing change
We have increased our minimum (inspection) fees for repairs and increased some of our television recycling prices.
See our price list for further information.
We try and keep or prices as low as possible but we must charge enough in order to supply a professional service and to maintain a high degree of environmental protection.
Our labour prices are still low compared to others in the industry.
DO NOT DUMP ITEMS
We have had a number of cases where items for recycling are dumped at our premises or left in the letterbox.
PLEASE TALK TO STAFF BEFORE LEAVING ANY ITEMS WITH US.
There is usually a $5 handling fee. Many items have low scrap value and also require processing for achieving a good environmental outcome.

Poor quality Ozito cordless drill charger
An Ozito OZCD12V1A cordless drill came in to us for recycling and it looked like it had hardly been used. Rather than recycling it I thought it might be a good candidate for repurposing or rehashing with different batteries. On … Continue reading
Not impressed with you Acer
Now look here Acer. I usually like your products. They are generally pretty well made (we’ll overlook that case in the late 1990s where the edge connectors in one of your laptops had insufficient gold plating causing a fault common … Continue reading
