Does anyone know of a service that could collect a large quantity of old OKI printers, parts, monitors, and scanners from Maidenhead?
We’ve already reached out to:
- Berkshire Computer Recycling
- CPR Computer Recycling
- Charter House Muller (still awaiting a response)
These items were also recently posted on Freecycle.
Here’s a complete list of what we have:
- 4 x Oki C7200 printers
- 1 x Oki C9655 (A3 printer)
- 3 x Okipage 14ex/14i printers
- 1 x Okipage 12 printer
- 1 x Okipage 10 printer
- 1 x Oki B4350 printer
- 1 x HP Deskjet D1560 printer
- 2 x HP Scanners (Scanjet 6200c & Scanjet 3500c)
- Various spare parts for Oki printers
The items vary in condition, and not all of them may function, but the goal was to salvage a few working units. If nobody is interested, we may sadly have to dispose of them. It would be a shame to see them go to waste!
It sounds like you have a lot of printers and equipment that could be reused! You might want to try reaching out to local schools, charities, or community centers that might be interested in taking them for parts or repair. Additionally, contacting local recycling centers that have programs for electronics could be a good option.
You could also check if there are any maker spaces or tech-focused clubs in the area; sometimes they enjoy working on such projects. Lastly, posting on local groups on social media platforms, such as Facebook Marketplace or groups dedicated to electronics recycling, might attract someone interested in rescuing these items. Good luck!
