So, you’re keen to donate devices - that’s amazing!
RAD is on the lookout for laptops (no tablets or phones, sorry!) that are less than a decade old, armed with their trusty chargers.
If your devices fit the criteria then let us know using the form! If the devices you have are outside this scope, scroll down and check out our suggestions for other donation options.
TechCollect (Nationwide)
RE:MOBILE (Nationwide) - cellphones only
Computer Recycling (Auckland)
Sustainability Trust (Wellington)
EcoCentral (Christchurch)
Cargill Enterprises (Dunedin)
Computer accessories and other equipment
If you have any high-quality and still useable electronic equipment, please give us a shout. Occasionally we're matchmakers in the tech education world, and with our network of schools and communities, those taonga could find a new home in no time.
Treasures we've rehomed include TVs, Mice, Keyboards, VR gear, laptop cases, screens, projectors, etc
I want to donate something other than laptops - can RAD help?
At the moment RAD only accepts laptops that are less than ten years old and come with a charger. Luckily, there are many other organisations in New Zealand working to reduce e-waste and decrease the digital divide! We recommend looking into whether any of these options work for your needs.
Many local Councils also offer e-waste facilities.
