Where e-waste comes from in Bloemfontein
Bloemfontein is the judicial capital of South Africa and the seat of the Free State government, so courts, departments and the Mangaung municipality retire computers, servers and printers in batches, often requiring secure data destruction. Two universities and several academic and private hospitals add more equipment. Agricultural businesses, grain co-operatives and retail centres replace office IT and electronics, and suburbs and estates produce household e-waste. Institutions and offices request most collections here.

- Healthcare: hospitals recycle PCs that hold patient records with certified wiping
