How It Works

Four Steps From Enquiry to Payment

Selling to EC Recycling takes four steps: send photos, converter codes, quantities and your location; receive a quotation, usually within one business day; drop off at our Johannesburg branch or arrange collection for volume loads; and get paid by EFT once the material is weighed and verified. No black boxes — every load moves through the same documented process, so you always know where your material is and what it's worth.

The Process

How to Sell Catalytic Converters or E-Waste in Four Steps

1

Send Us Your Details

Photos, converter codes, quantities and your location — via email or the quote form. The more detail, the sharper the quote.

2

Receive a Quotation

We identify your material, apply live market pricing, and send a transparent quotation — usually within one business day.

3

Arrange Collection or Drop-Off

Accept the quote and we schedule collection for volume loads, or you drop off at our Johannesburg branch.

4

Receive Payment

Material is weighed and verified on receipt against the quote. Payment goes out fast and securely by EFT.

Behind the Scenes

What Happens to Your Material

Identification & Grading

Converters are matched to their reference codes; e-waste is sorted into streams (boards by grade, metals, cable, whole units).

Weighing & Documentation

Everything is weighed and recorded. Volume loads get an itemised breakdown so you can reconcile against your own list.

Recovery & Responsible Processing

PGM-bearing material goes to refining for platinum, palladium and rhodium recovery; remaining fractions enter compliant recycling channels rather than landfill.

Timelines

How Long Each Step Takes

Quotation: we respond within one business day, and most converter enquiries with reference codes and photos are quoted the same day. E-waste is quoted per unit or by weight from your list or photos.

Drop-off: our Johannesburg branch at Unit 1, 14 John Street, Selby, Johannesburg, 2001 takes drop-offs during business hours (Mon – Fri: 08:00 – 17:00; Saturday: 08:00 – 13:00) with no minimum quantity. Bring proof of identity.

Collection: volume loads in Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal are scheduled once you accept the quote. Payment: by EFT as soon as the material is verified against the quote — for drop-offs that is typically the same day.
