- Most experts estimate a laptop, chromebook, IPad & and tablet lifespan to be three to five years. It may survive longer than that, but its utility will be limited as the components become less capable of running advanced applications.
- For many companies and governments, the rapid and ongoing evolution of technology is a wonderful experience. On one hand, powerful new tools like laptops, chromebook, IPads & and tablets can help empower employees and improve workplace efficiency. On the other hand, staying up to date with the latest technology is expensive, and figuring out what to do with your old equipment after you’ve upgraded poses a new set of challenges.
- Reuse by donating older but still working laptops, Chromebook, IPads & and tablets is an approach to enrich our local communities and increase the academic and professional well-being of individuals by taking valuable items no longer needed by those who no longer need them and offering them to people who do need them for free. We will work to repurpose old laptops, IPads & tablets better than recycling.
