Our Purpose
Is to reuse or find alternative uses
for obsolete computer and electronic equipment, what cannot be reused is
to be separated and recycled responsibly.
To educate people and companies about
recycling while helping to stop or significantly reduce the
dumping of computers and associated equipment in our land fill areas.
We believe that
We all make a difference when we try.
Environmental Policy
PC Graveyard recognise that we ALL
have a role to play in ensuring that we ALL manage our environmental by
being aware of the impact we can have by recycling. We also recognise
that we have a role to play in communicating good environmental practice
outside our company and immediate circle.
PC Graveyard promotes and maintains
an Environmental Policy to ensure that the impact of our operations
overall reduces landfill and educates others to do the same.
We are in Geelong which is about 45
minutes from Melbourne.
What
do you do with all the equipment you collect?
Where possible we reuse and salvage
items for spare parts to repair and refurbish faulty computer equipment,
we do sell refurbished parts, monitors, printers and a variety of
assorted bits.
What
about the rest of the computer parts?
We do recycle, nothing goes to the
tip or is used as landfill. We dismantle computers and equipment down to
base components; metal, plastics, circuit boards, cables, screws and
components and supply these to other companies then process the material
further. We work with other specialist recyclers, i.e. Scrap metal
merchants, plastics recyclers and other recycling centres. We process
and stock pile these materials which are taken away / provided to
specialists who then process this material for reuse.
The cost of collecting,
dismantling, storing and recycling this computer equipment is high, some
of it is pure junk and isn't worth the phone calls, we do need to make a
profit to continue this environmentally friendly service. We are
passionate about the reuse and recycling of virtually everything and
seeing so much being dumped into land fill it is time to do something
about it and we believe we are making a positive difference.
We receive no funding or financial
assistance for our environmental efforts, we survive by doing repairs
and selling parts. I truly thank the
companies and individuals who have / do support us and understand what
we are trying to achieve here.
Thanks.
