Camera

Older cameras which are not able to be used should be recycled as they have recoverable materials, including gold.

Some cameras can be recycled for spare parts or are valued by collectors for posterity.

Consider gifting your old working camera to someone who would use and appreciate it.

On-sell it.

Cameras can be recycled at the the Whanganui Resource Recovery Centre (fees apply).

Technoman in Whanganui East will take cameras and video cameras as part of a TechCollect e-waste recycling scheme.

Plastic camera cases and metal components do not biodegrade easily. Please keep from landfill.
