Computer recycling
5 Answers
I have an old computer that isn't really good enough for modern-day needs but still works perfectly well. Is there anywhere that "recycles" them or rebuilds them? (I'm in Norfolk.)

just put 'recycle old computers' into the bbc search engine and one of the first things on the list was a disability webzine from south norfolk! it was from 2002 but the relevant paragraph was

Having a proper recycling of the systems is actually need of the hour. A lot of companies have different outdated desktops that are not in demand. Some of them offer it by placing them in the market for swift selling. IT recycling company have proper facilities to recycle the product. Not only computer but large variety of IT products. People can also get better deal giving it to the recycling firms than giving it to landfill companies.
