Where e-waste comes from in Vereeniging

Vereeniging on the Vaal River is a long-established steel and heavy engineering centre. Foundries, steel mills and engineering workshops across the Vaal Triangle retire control systems, variable speed drives, motors and cabling, and power-related industries add transformers and batteries. The Sasolburg chemical complex lies just across the river. Municipal offices, schools, colleges and households in Meyerton, Sebokeng and Three Rivers add computers and appliances. Industrial plants and contractors are the main clients for collections.
