Medical equipment collection Dunedin by our own team
Dunedin has a long history as a centre for medical and dental education in New Zealand. The city combines a major hospital, a large university with health science and dental schools, private clinics and many research laboratories. Our medical equipment collection Dunedin service helps these organisations remove old and surplus equipment in a safe and documented way.
To see how the full process works, visit our medical equipment recycling page.
Teaching and research facilities replace equipment often. Dental chairs, microscopes, analysers, freezers and imaging units all reach the end of their working life. Our medical equipment collection Dunedin team removes them carefully, even from older buildings with tricky access.
Every job is handled by our own people. We load, transport and process your equipment, so you always know who is responsible and where it goes.
