Where e-waste comes from in Kimberley

Kimberley is the capital of the Northern Cape and the historic home of diamond mining. Provincial government departments, Sol Plaatje University and hospitals retire computers and printers in batches, while mines in the region replace control equipment and radios. Kimberley also serves as a supply centre for the province's solar plants, which produce damaged panels, inverters and batteries. Because towns are far apart, mines, departments and solar operators usually arrange bulk collections.

Frequently asked questions

How much does cable and copper recycling cost in Kimberley?
It depends on the type and volume of e-waste, how it is packed and the collection distance. Items with resale or scrap value can lower the cost or earn you money, while hazardous items such as CRT screens and damaged batteries usually carry a handling fee. Submit the form and a recycler serving Kimberley will send you a quote.
How quickly can e-waste be collected in Kimberley?
Collections can often be booked within a few working days in Kimberley. Large clear-outs, on-site data destruction or remote sites need more planning, so mention your deadline in the request.
Will I get a certificate for cable and copper recycling?
Reputable recyclers issue a certificate of recycling or safe disposal, and a certificate of data destruction when storage media are involved. Ask for these in your request so they are included in your quote for Northern Cape.
