PC Disposals PTY LTD ( ABN 17 129 836 826 ) Recyclers of old and outdated computing known as ewaste is a sister company of Brisbane Computer Recyclers PTY LTD. PC Disposals PTY LTD is not affiliated or part of any other group or chain of businesses in Brisbane. Brisbane Computer Recyclers PTY LTD is located at 3/49 Donaldson Road Roacklea, the name has been trading since 2004. In 2007 PC Disposals PTY LTD was formed as a seperate company from the retail side. Both companies are PTY LTD registered.
Unfortunately in Australia there is no rebate scheme available as the goverments, local and federal are reluctant to give any rewards/ rebates or money towards old equipment that is disposed of responsibly.
We are recycling aproximately ( Kgs Amounts Revised 04/2009 ) 50,000 to 80,000 kgs per month of mixed computing as part of our own self funded initiative to recycle. We do not recieve any funding what so ever from government at any level.
There are a few Australian initiatives like PC Disposals PTY LTD that are starting the assault on the mountain of e-waste and unfortunately we are starting small. The problem with the current e-waste recyling is that Australian e-waste recycling started around 2 years ago on a serious scale, in comparison to Canada or the USA which stared around 20 years ago, so we have alot of catching up to do. Companies who handle e-waste only recycle a small amount in comparison to what is discarded everyday. PC Disposals has always been a believer that Governments have to get those who are skilled or semi-skilled unemployed on work for the dole schemes, semi retired or appropriately skilled people to assist companies who are actively involved in recycling ewaste. Governments have to start helping companies with the initiative to recycle e-waste before the problem gets too large to handle.
