E-waste:

E-Waste generally refers to a product that use some form of electricity to operate. At the Katikati Resource Recovery Centre, these include battery or mains operated items and include products such as cell phones, computers and devices, TV’s and screen, modems etc.  

In general, nearly all electronic items we accept consist of parts that can be recycled. Some products contain potentially toxic elements that could harm the environment if not disposed of or processed properly.

We accept most electronic items for FREE. However, there are some items that due to the costs involved in the recycling process, we need to charge a small fee.

The electronic items we accept we sort into different categories: (these exclude whiteware)

• Items we can potentially sell – we test these to ensure they work and are safe.
• Items that may need further testing and/or repair.
• Items that cannot sold – we dismantle these and recover the recyclable parts.
• Items we can’t dismantle – we aggregate and send away for recycling

Broken / not working e-waste?

We do not accept any of the following broken items:

• Small appliances
• Whiteware – fridge, freezers, washing machines, microwaves, dishwashers, tumble dryers
