Flat-screen TVs, sound systems, speakers, DVD and media players, gaming consoles, controllers and related cables. Tell us if any screen is cracked or an older CRT unit.
Phones and Personal Electronics
Mobile phones, tablets, cameras, smartwatches, headphones, chargers, powerboards and small plug-in devices.
Office and Retail Equipment
Photocopiers, desktop phones, conferencing gear, POS terminals, receipt printers, networking equipment and small server hardware. Heavy or rack-mounted items need photos and access details.
Small Appliances and Powered Tools
Microwaves, vacuums, fans, kitchen appliances, power tools and garden equipment that do not contain fuel, oil or another liquid.
Whitegoods and Large Appliances
Fridges, freezers, washing machines, dryers and air conditioners may be collected through our White Goods Removal service. Send photos so the correct handling route can be confirmed.
Items That Need Approval Before Booking
Send close photos and a description for loose, swollen, damaged or leaking batteries, CRT screens, fluorescent tubes or globes, refrigerant appliances, laboratory equipment, medical devices and electronics exposed to chemicals or water.
Hazardous chemicals, toxic or medical waste, liquids and contaminated material cannot be added to a standard e-waste load.
How E-Waste Pick-Up Works
You do not need to carry a TV, printer or office load to the kerb. Show us the items and tell us how the crew will reach them.
1. Send photos and an item list
Photograph every item or the complete pile. Add your suburb, preferred day, stairs, lift access, parking limits and the distance to the truck.
2. We check acceptance and price
The quote considers item type, volume, weight, access, labour and any receiving charges. Items that need a separate route are identified before booking.
3. Approve the quote and collection time
The agreed items, price and available time are confirmed before the crew arrives.
4. The crew lifts and loads
RubbishGo collects the approved items from accessible areas of your property.
5. Accepted items go to a suitable destination
Electronics are directed to reuse, recycling or approved disposal routes according to their type, condition and the receiving facility’s current rules.
How Much Does E-Waste Removal Cost?
E-waste collection is quoted from the item list, photos, and access. A flat-screen TV on the ground floor can require different handling from a photocopier upstairs or a storeroom filled with computers.
What Changes the Quote
- Number, size, weight and type of electronic items
- Stairs, lifts, long carry distances and restricted parking
- Extra crew or handling equipment needed for bulky items
- Receiving, recycling or disposal charges for the accepted items
- Other furniture, whitegoods or general rubbish in the same load
- Cracked screens, batteries, refrigerant or other special handling
Send photos of the complete load for the clearest price. RubbishGo will confirm the accepted items and agreed amount before loading starts.
Before We Collect Computers, Phones and Battery Devices
Back up and wipe personal data
Save anything you need, sign out of accounts and factory reset the device where possible.
Remove cards and accessories
Take out SIM cards, memory cards, USB drives and any storage media you plan to keep.
Ask about sensitive business equipment
If you need certified data destruction, serial-number reporting or a chain-of-custody record, state this before booking. A standard rubbish pick-up does not include these records or services without written confirmation.
Keep batteries visible
Do not hide loose batteries in bags or boxes. Photograph damaged, swollen or leaking batteries and wait for acceptance instructions.
Make access safe
Clear the path, secure pets and tell us about stairs, tight corners, loading zones or building booking rules.
Should You Use a Free Drop-Off Point or Book Collection?
Eligible household TVs, computers and related equipment may be accepted free at council or National Television and Computer Recycling Scheme collection points. Those services can suit people who can transport the items and work within the site’s acceptance rules and opening hours.
A Drop-Off Point May Suit
- A small number of accepted household devices
- Items you can lift and transport safely
- A trip that fits the facility’s opening hours and entry rules
- TV and computer products covered by a free collection scheme
RubbishGo Collection May Suit
- Heavy TVs, printers, appliances or several items
- Collection from inside a home, unit, office or storeroom
- Mixed loads containing furniture, whitegoods or general rubbish
- Office clear-outs and time-sensitive moves or handovers
- Customers who do not have a suitable vehicle or lifting help
Check the latest council rules before travelling. For collection, send RubbishGo photos and your suburb so availability and price can be confirmed.

Moving or End of Lease
Clear electronics that will not be moved before cleaning, inspection or handover.
Shop or Hospitality Equipment Change
Remove approved POS equipment, screens, printers and small electrical appliances after a refit or closure.

What Happens to Collected E-Waste?
Working electronics may have a reuse route. Other accepted devices can be sent to facilities that recover metals, plastics, glass and reusable components. Items that cannot be reused or recycled need an approved disposal route.
The destination depends on the device, condition, embedded batteries, hazardous components and the receiving facility’s rules at the time of collection. RubbishGo collects and transports the approved items. Specialist facilities decide how each item is treated.
No collector can promise that every item will be reused or recycled. Send photos if you want a particular device checked before booking.

Electronic Waste FAQs
What counts as electronic waste?
Electronic waste is unwanted equipment powered by a plug, battery or charging cable. Common items include TVs, computers, monitors, printers, phones, cables, small appliances and office electronics.
Can you collect one TV or computer?
Yes, a single bulky item can be quoted, subject to the minimum job price, item acceptance and collection availability. Send a photo, your suburb and access details.
Do I need to move the items outside?
No. The crew can collect approved items from accessible areas inside a home, unit, office, garage or storeroom. Tell us about stairs, lifts, narrow doors and parking before booking.
Do you collect fridges, washing machines and air conditioners?
These items may be collected through our White Goods Removal service. They can need a different handling or receiving route, so include each appliance in the photo quote.
Can batteries go in the same load?
Do not place loose or damaged batteries inside bags, boxes or devices without telling us. Send photos first. RubbishGo will confirm whether they can be collected or should go to a battery drop-off point.
Will RubbishGo erase the data on my devices?
A standard rubbish pick-up does not include certified data destruction without written confirmation. Back up your files, sign out, factory reset the device and remove SIM cards or storage media before collection.
Is same-day e-waste collection available?
Same-day or next-day collection may be available. Send photos early and RubbishGo will confirm the nearest open time for your suburb.
How is the price worked out?
The quote considers the item type, number, volume, weight, access, labour and receiving charges. Cracked screens, batteries, refrigerant appliances and other handling needs can affect the amount.
Can e-waste be collected with furniture or general rubbish?
Often, yes. List every item in the enquiry so the load can be sorted into the right collection and receiving routes. Some hazardous, liquid, medical or contaminated waste cannot be included.
Can I recycle e-waste for free instead?
Some council and NTCRS collection points accept eligible household TVs, computers and related equipment free. RubbishGo is a paid collection service for customers who need lifting, loading, scheduled pick-up or removal of bulky and mixed loads.
Will every electronic item be recycled?
No single outcome applies to every device. Reuse and recycling depend on condition, material, safety and the receiving facility’s current rules. Items with no suitable recovery route go to an approved disposal destination.
Need Other Items Collected at the Same Time?
Add whitegoods, office furniture, household rubbish or scrap metal to your photo quote. RubbishGo will confirm what can travel in the same load and whether any item needs a separate receiving route.
