Computation Ltd. began many moons ago as an industrious hobby among friends with the environmental, social and entrepreneurial goal of diverting computers, IT and A/V equipment from the waste stream by reducing, reusing, and recycling – because it was, and still is, the right thing to do! We take great pride in our 3Rs model, which we are constantly evolving, and the extremely high percentage of waste diversion that results from all the material we receive. And so, it is in that spirit that we are very pleased to announce our pilot program focused on Cable Recycling & Wire Recycling as we embark on extending our reach as a cable recycler and wire recycler.

Where to Recycle Wires and Cables in Toronto & the GTA

As always, our doors will be open to free drop-off recycling (some limits will apply). If you have bulkier cables or quantities (anything that cannot be easily carried by a single individual) or larger volumes of smaller pieces (more than a trunk full), please contact us to coordinate receiving and we’ll be happy to assist. You can also contact us to take advantage of our pick-up services.

By engaging Computation Ltd. as your cable recycler or wire recycler you will be a participant in an environmentally sensitive solution and can be certain that the materials you are disposing of will be diverted from landfill and reused or recycled to the highest standards. Processing is conducted in the following manner:

  • Equipment can be picked-up from your location by our staff and vehicle at a time of your choosing, or dropped off at our facility by a delivery method of your selection.
  • Recycling and reuse processes will prioritize local solutions, first in our Toronto facilities, then with our partners in the GTA, neighbouring provinces, and the USA.
  • On a best efforts basis we will maximize the proportion of equipment reused.
  • Materials not suitable for reuse will be recycled for its raw material content in an environmentally sound manner.
  • Materials received will be tracked by our system and a certificate or customized asset management report can be issued upon request.

This method operationalizes our commitment to our clients, and the environment. The end result of this system provides us and our clients with the peace of mind that comes with taking a leading role in developing another area in which we can reduce our environmental footprint.

What Wires and Cables can we accept?

Aside from the need to be warned about larger items or larger loads (described above), we are ready to accept a wide variety of cables and wires, regardless of brand, type, length or condition – with rare exceptions.
