Donating computers to Computer Aid means your IT equipment gets a second life, reaches people who need it, and delivers measurable impact your business can report on. We manage the entire process, from secure collection to certified data destruction, refurbishment, and global distribution. Over 27 years, we have placed more than 287,000 devices into schools, NGOs, and community organisations across 115 countries.
Getting started is straightforward. Contact our team, tell us what equipment you have, and we arrange collection directly from your site at no cost for bulk donations. From there, we handle everything.
Every device is wiped to UK Government-approved data destruction standards, refurbished by qualified technicians, and placed into a verified education or community project. You receive certified documentation at every stage and a full impact report showing where your equipment went. Take a look at il nostro lavoro to see the projects your donation supports.
We accept a wide range of IT equipment from businesses, whether from a scheduled technology refresh or a recent office upgrade.
Devices that work best for refurbishment:
Equipment outside these criteria is still accepted and responsibly recycled through certified channels, covering your WEEE obligations in full.
A computer donation through Computer Aid is not a one-way transaction:
For businesses wanting to go further, you can fund a project or sponsor a tailored initiative alongside your equipment donation. Many of our corporate partners do both. You can also explore our Servizio di smaltimento IT if your equipment requires a more comprehensive managed solution
If your business has IT equipment ready to go, get in touch with the Computer Aid team. We will take it from there.
