Where e-waste comes from in Boksburg

Boksburg is part of the industrial East Rand in Ekurhuleni, close to O.R. Tambo International Airport. Metal fabricators, engineering works, chemical companies and transport operators retire control panels, computers and electrical equipment, much of it linked to mining supply. Large shopping centres and retail warehouses add point-of-sale equipment and appliances, and schools and households across Boksburg, Benoni and Brakpan generate a steady flow of computers, phones and batteries. Factories and fleet operators are frequent clients.
