Electronic Waste Collection in Pune

About the collection service

Electronic waste collection is the step between deciding to clear unwanted equipment and the equipment reaching a recycling route. Rather than transporting items yourself, you can enquire about having them collected - from a household or from an office in Pune.

To enquire, tell us what you have, roughly how much of it there is, and where it needs collecting from. From that we confirm whether the items are within what we accept and whether collection is available at your location.

Equipment accepted

• Desktop computers and workstations
• Laptops and notebooks
• Printers and scanners
• Mobile phones and tablets
• Servers and IT equipment
• Monitors and televisions
• Networking equipment
• Cables and wires
• UPS units and batteries
• Components and circuit boards

Batteries are accepted but handled as a separate stream.

How to request collection

1. Select the equipment category

Tell us what kind of equipment it is. The category determines how the collection is handled.

2. Enter approximate quantity

A rough count is enough. A handful of items and a room of machines are different arrangements.

3. Provide the location

Your area in Pune or PCMC. Collection availability depends on where the equipment is.

4. Submit contact information

Call or WhatsApp 93590 29457, or use the contact page.

5. Confirm service availability and applicable terms

We confirm whether collection is available for your items and location, and what terms apply, before anything is booked.

Household collection

Households usually have a small, mixed load: a laptop that stopped charging, a printer that no longer prints, a bag of cables, a phone that has been replaced.

Business and office collection

Offices, institutions and businesses clear equipment in larger volumes - during a move, a refresh cycle or a closure. An asset list or count is more useful than individual descriptions, and the arrangement is scheduled rather than immediate.

Where the equipment held business data, the handling of storage media needs agreeing before collection.

Preparation before collection

Back up first

Back up anything you want to keep before the equipment leaves.

Remove personal accounts

Sign out of accounts rather than only deleting apps, and remove devices from any find-my-device service.

Remove SIM and memory cards

Where applicable - phones, tablets and some laptops.

Do not dismantle hazardous components at home

Do not open batteries, break screens or disassemble power supplies yourself. Batteries can ignite if punctured, and power supplies retain charge.
