Most of what we collect is repaired and sold on, which is what keeps collections free. A share is donated to charities and community groups.
Reuse first
Around 95% is reused or repurposed. It varies from collection to collection, because it depends entirely on what comes in.
Basis of the 95% figure, by weight or by item count, still to be confirmed. It is not published here until it is.
Extending the life of one laptop by three years saves around 330kg of CO2, which is the single largest environmental effect in this whole process. Recycling is what we do when reuse is genuinely not possible.
Work out your own figure
Count the devices, get a figure. No obligation and nothing to install.
It is an estimate based on average device weights, not the verified number, which comes from an itemised report after collection.
Every item is booked in and audited individually against its serial number, which is how those proportions are known rather than estimated.
No obligation, and no jargon. If we are not the right fit we will say so.
