Where e-waste comes from in Northern Cape

The Northern Cape is the largest province by area, with iron ore, manganese and diamond mines around Kathu, Kuruman and Kimberley that retire control equipment, radios and IT. Many of South Africa's solar and wind farms have been built here, producing damaged panels, inverters and batteries. Kimberley hosts provincial government departments and a university, and the Square Kilometre Array radio telescope site lies near Carnarvon. Long distances mean collections are usually planned in bulk.

Frequently asked questions

How much does medical e-waste cost in Northern Cape?

Submit the form and a recycler serving Northern Cape will send you a quote.
How quickly can e-waste be collected in Northern Cape?
Collections can often be booked within a few working days in the main centres of Northern Cape. 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 medical e-waste?
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.
