Cable recycling: what we collect

  • Network patch leads and communications cable.

  • Disconnected power leads and equipment adapters.

  • USB, display and other peripheral cables.

  • Cable reels and power supply units, if you list them with the load.

Keep loose leads separate from live wiring

Electrical cable disposal starts after your electrician has disconnected and removed any fixed wiring. We collect loose cable only, not cable still in trays, walls or live circuits.

A mixed box from a server room can hide portable drives or memory cards. Ask your IT team to check. Keep batteries, liquids and packaging out of the cable load.

How to pack it

Use sturdy boxes or bulk bags so leads can't spill. Keep heavy adapters apart from delicate electronics. Send the number of containers, their rough size and how we get to them. Don't overfill the bags.

How it works

  1. Send the details. What is in the load, how many containers and the site access.

  2. We confirm. We check it against your list and email the quote.

  3. We collect. The cables are collected and recycled.

Collection, minimums and timing

Collection across metropolitan Melbourne, with delivery to our yard available by arrangement for business loads.

There is no minimum. The fee depends on the load and access, and the quote comes back by email once we have looked at what you have.

Related asset types

Plan leads alongside server retirement and room decommissioning. UPS equipment is a separate job, even when it sits beside the power leads.

Return to e-waste collection or materials we work with. See hard drives and data before you hand over any storage.

Batteries in devices

Laptops, phones and tablets can come as they are, with their batteries in. Loose, swollen or damaged lithium batteries are not taken. Tell us if any device is swollen, cracked or has been in water.
