About us
Who we are
At Mac Recycle what we do is very simple: we take your old and unwanted Macs for cash and save them from landfill.
Here at Mac Recycle our goal is to have a positive impact on the environment and global warming by reducing e-waste and recycling used computers that might have otherwise gone to landfill. We refurbish or use parts from all the Macs that we buy off our customers, which reduces the need for factories to produce more computers, another positive impact.
We have a friendly team of technicians based in our Harrogate workshop who are there to answer all the enquiries you may have.
Our history
How we got here
With an origin dating back to 2011, Mac Recycle was created out of the need to prevent Apple computers needlessly going to landfill. With built-in obsolescence now prevalent in many electronic devices, it is more important than ever to stop this happening. We first came up with the idea in late 2011, and early the following year Mac Recycle was born.
Based in Harrogate, we moved from our 300 sq ft shop to a dedicated space of 1,000 sq ft in late 2013. From here we have grown from strength to strength, and so has the team. Through our advanced recycling techniques, Mac Recycle has now created jobs for over ten people. We have big ambitions for the future, and want to further improve our techniques to bring greater refinement and success rates to our recycling efforts.
Where it all began
The idea for Mac Recycle came together in late 2011, to tackle built-in obsolescence and Apple e-waste head on.
Room to grow
We moved from our 300 sq ft shop into a dedicated 1,000 sq ft workshop in Harrogate.
Ten and counting
Our advanced recycling techniques have created jobs for over ten people, with big ambitions still ahead.
Our process
The first part of the easy process is to fill in our quote form. You will then be presented with a price based on the grade and specification of your Mac. If you choose to accept this quote, you are then able to book a collection from our courier or receive a label to drop the Mac off at your local parcel shop.
Once we receive the Mac into our workshop you will be notified, and the testing and grading confirmation process starts. You can expect to receive payment in under 24 hours.
