De-cluttering your household responsibly
Stress-free, sustainable solutions that keep your used electronic devices out of landfills.
Becoming an E-waste champion is easy
Join the movement to recycle 100% of electronic waste
Electronic waste is the fastest growing (and one of the most toxic) streams of waste in the world. Only 20% is currently recycled. Let’s change that.
We wipe your devices for free, and we do it really well
It’s part of our normal business practice to inspect all devices, and use government-grade wiping methods to delete all data off of your used devices.
Easy options to get your devices to us
We make it easy for you to recycle your used devices. Simply schedule a pick-up, post your items to us, or drop them off yourself.
Donate your smartphones to a great cause
We’re working with local organisations across London, Manchester, Bristol, Leeds, Swansea and Glasgow to send refurbished smartphones to those in need.

*If you need refrigerators, A/C units, or white goods collected, we can only collect these items if they are in working condition, and we’ll need to charge you a handling fee.
For non-working white goods, please contact your local council, take these items to your local recycling centre. If you are purchasing a replacement, your retailer may offer a take-back option.
Except for non-working white goods, if it’s got a plug or battery, we’ll take it. That means we’ll take laptops, computer equipment, monitors, peripherals, audio equipment, kitchen electronics, consumer electronics, related accessories like cables and chargers, and much more.
We don’t take light bulbs or fluorescent light tubes. We can, however, take batteries if these can be separated in a bag or box.
Once back at Reconome, devices are sorted and tested, refurbished and go out refreshed and ready to be reused once again. We even sort and reuse the smallest of cables.
Collections start from £30 including VAT. Our prices are determined by:
- Distance
- Volume
- Number of non-working items, especially those requiring specialised disposal
- Access only available by stairs
