Important Notice - Accepted items
In order to have the greatest impact on our community, we have changed our services to focus on laptops and desktop computers only. These items allow us to have the greatest impact by promoting digital inclusion, and providing tech to those that need it most!
Unfortunately, many of the items previously accepted were not suitable for reuse or were not economically viable. Time spent disassembling and recycling items, or preparing 'low-value' items from reuse takes precious resources away from our reuse strategy.
We have therefore amended our Accepted Items list to accept laptops & desktop computers only - please check your items can be accepted before attempting to donate.

"You can't accept my item - what can I do?
We have revised our accepted items list to maximise our digital inclusion impact - which means we can provide tech access to even more people in need!
Unfortunately, the time and cost required to refurbish others items, coupled with a low resale rate means it is no longer suitable for us to accept all item types.
If you have an item that is suitable for reuse, but not accepted by Tech-Takeback - consider listing it on Freegle. There's thousands of people in the Freegle community and lots of options for reuse!
