Our History
With an origin dating back to 2011, Mac Recycle was create out of the need to prevent Apple computers needlessly going to landfill. With built in obsolesce now prevalent in many electronics devices it is now more important than ever to stop this happening. We first came up with this idea in late 2011, and early in the next year Mac Recycle was born.
Our aim was created to enable to the reuse of all aspects of the computers that we receive. We achieve this through careful consideration of part allocation, and key contacts in the circular economy and highly trained technicians.


Based in Harrogate, we moved from our 300sqft shop to a dedicated space of 1000sqft in late 2013. From here we have grown from strength to strength, and so has the team. Through our advanced recycling techniques Mac Recycle have now created jobs for over ten people. We have big ambitions for the future, we want to further improve our techniques to bring great refinement and success rates to our recycling efforts.
By using Mac Recycle you genuinely are helping the environment. We all need to come together in order to save the environment for future generations to enjoy. Mac Recycle are proud to be at the front of this effort. With less computers going to landfill, less need to be produced saving on co2 emissions.
