Doesn’t seem as easy as I had hoped to find somewhere in Melbourne to recycle a stack of CDs and DVDs that I have no use for. Gram Destruction in Tullamarine look like the best option in Melbourne (and Victoria for that matter).
We recycle the discs, the cases, the cover and inserts, and any other booklets that may come with the disc. There is no need to separate discs from cases, or covers and inserts. All we ask you to do is to put them in boxes, shrink wrap and palatize them. We do the rest of the work for you. We will pay for the freight and also pay you a small fee (scrap value) for the discs.
You can bring your discs, etc. to our factory, or send them to us via post or courier.
Our factory address is:
Gram Destruction
Factory 4/46 Allied Drive
Tullamarine Vic 3043
Now, if only I could find a place to get rid of that stack of old floppy disks! [Update: They take them too!!]
Gram Destruction accept floppy disks (computer disks) – I was at their site on 27.1.10. For private individuals there is generally no charge – there possibly may be if you had a large quantity.
The charge for businesses – for all items they recycle – is $1.50 per kilo plus GST.
Thanks for the extra info Ian. Good to know that I can find a home for those floppy disks also. Now I just have to get organised and make a trip out to Tullamarine!
