Where e-waste comes from in Cape Town

Cape Town is a major centre for financial services, technology companies, call centres and retail head offices, all of which replace laptops, desktops, phones and network equipment on regular cycles. Universities, colleges and public hospitals add large batches, and the port and industrial areas such as Montague Gardens and Epping retire logistics and factory electronics. Households and estates from Durbanville to Somerset West dispose of appliances, batteries and solar equipment. Offices and schools are frequent clients.
