New Drop-Off Point for E-Waste in Cambridge

When: Monday - Friday, 9am -3pm
Where: Achievement House, Wilson Street (next to Cambridge Primary) 

Urban Miners is excited to announce a new partnership with Achievement House in Cambridge, making it easier than ever for locals to recycle their e-waste.

You can drop off e-waste at Achievement House, Wilson Street, five days a week during their normal opening hours. This adds to our existing monthly Sunday collections at Cambridge High School, which will continue as usual.

Items accepted include:

  • Computers, laptops, phones, and small electronics

  • Cables, plugs, and cords

  • Batteries of all types

Please note: we cannot accept large whiteware such as fridges or washing machines.

All collected e-waste is dismantled at the Urban Miners workshop, where materials are sorted for reuse and recycling. This helps divert valuable resources away from landfill and supports our community-driven mission to tackle e-waste in Waipā.

By teaming up with Achievement House, which provides meaningful work opportunities for people with intellectual and learning disabilities, we’re building both a more sustainable environment and a stronger community.

Where to drop off your e-waste:

  • Achievement House, Wilson Street, Cambridge (Mon–Fri, opening hours)

  • Cambridge High School, monthly Sunday collections

  • ASB Te Awamutu Sports Club, monthly Sunday collections

Together, we can keep more e-waste out of landfill. Thank you for your support.
