Where are the boards from old TVs. Where to rent an old TV for the money for recycling and spare parts

Going into the store of household appliances, especially during stocks and sales, it is impossible to refrain from buying more modern. Our trading network in abundance offers the latest quality models. But first you need to decide where to pass old tv, worthless in the apartment.

In the recent past, we had the opportunity to rent a TV for parts to private individuals engaged in repairing old models. But in our age of rapid development of new technologies, outdated parts of televisions will soon be needed by no one. We are increasingly seeing the mountains of old TVs near garbage cans and on the sites for bulky waste. It is not right! By such irresponsible actions we cause great harm to the environment. Damaged television tubes and lamps emit a huge amount of toxins.

There are very few options where you can rent an old TV for money. If it is in good working condition, you can try to sell it by ad. Students and young families who are not able to buy expensive modern televisionsoften buy cheap old models. If you don’t manage to turn in an old TV for money, it’s a pity to throw it away, because the model is not very old and the quality of playback is very good - just donate it. There are many charitable funds to help orphans, refugees, families affected by natural disasters. You will be pleased to think that it is your TV that will at least help your neighbor.

If your equipment is completely useless, in some cities there is a specialized service where you can turn in a broken TV. To do this, just take the phone directory and invite service workers to the house. Specialists, for a small cash reward, come and help you pass the TV for recycling. Next, the old equipment is shipped to the e-trash recycling plant. Valuable materials are selected for reuse, and toxic wastes are disposed of in compliance with all the rules specified in sanitary standards.

When buying a new TV in a shopping center, we recommend asking the manager a question: “Is it possible to rent an old TV?” For example, in the shops of the Eldorado retail chain they provide an extra charge when you buy a new TV for renting out an old, not working model.

Almost every family has used household appliances on the balcony, in the pantry or garage. Irresponsible citizens throw it out on ordinary waste bins, but this is fraught with a serious fine, such equipment is subject to specialized processing. So where can you get an old TV for money, so that a faulty equipment doesn't harm nature, and the remaining parts could help someone?

How much is the old TV

First, we need to remind our fellow citizens that TV sets belong to the 3rd class of waste by hazard according to the FCCW classification, regardless of generation, like monitors. This means that if a citizen gets caught throwing such equipment into an ordinary trash can, then he will face a substantial fine. For the disposal of televisions, there are landfills, recycling centers, special points where you can turn in old household appliances for money (utilization services cost money). Where to rent an old TV for money and get a profit:

• sell for parts: old models often contain items that have long been discontinued, a rare device and are very much appreciated by craftsmen who buy parts;
• purchase of old TVs by designers, clubs, cafes;
• sell a vintage TV model to a collector;
• to take to the point of reception of scrap metal;
• place an ad online;
• pass for scrap metal and for excavation of non-ferrous metals (they are contained in small quantities inside any electronic board);
• exchange old equipment for a new one with some surcharge.

If the kinescopic TV is 15–20 years old, then getting serious money for it will not work: the bulletin boards are filled with such offers for 100 rubles each and pickup. Less likely to be lucky if the buyer is looking for a specific model. The wider the diagonal and the better the condition of the device, the higher the amount, but rarely will it be possible to gain more than 1000 rubles. For the same money, you can buy a new flat-panel TV with a package of functions, instead of a large box with faded colors.

Non-working models with which the market was filled 10-15 years ago are also almost not listed, because there are too many of them left, and repairs are often unprofitable. TV new generations (plasma TVs, LCD) on the Internet with a hand start from 150-250 thousand rubles. However, it is better to buy such technological wonders through the store to get a guarantee. Sell ​​a modern TV monitor really for 50-75% of the cost in perfect condition. Non-working devices vary greatly depending on the failure and the required investment in repairs.

How to sell a used TV

The easiest way to get rid of outdated equipment and make money on it is to find a buyer of rare spare parts and TV through an ad on sites like Avito and OLX. However, one must be prepared for prices to be dumped. The prospective buyer will be guided by the minimum offer price. The best solution would be to focus on highly specialized areas: collectors, commissions, promotions in technomarkets.

Vintage TV

TV age over 50 years in working condition may have value several orders of magnitude more expensive than new models. Collectors can be found online or offered to specialized museums (although in this case the profit will not be high). Below, for example, are the good prices for which they bought the devices of the past recently online:

• KVN 49 A (1950) - 270,000 rubles;
• T2 Leningrad (1952) - 180,000 rubles.

To hand over a broken TV for money, you can in a proven commission. The method is effective, but has its drawbacks. The owner will see the money only after the sale, if he wants to receive the full amount. If the funds are needed immediately, then the store will give about 50-75%, depending on the policy of the office (besides, the equipment will have to be carried). On the other hand, by giving the equipment to the commission you can free up space in the home and eventually get a nice cash bonus after the sale.

Exchange of old TV for new

Many large stores hold promotions: they exchange old, unnecessary household appliances for new ones for some extra charge. A good discount may depend on the youth of TV, its appearance, functional status. In any case, it is more profitable than buying a new one at full price. Transportation of your equipment depends on the conditions of the action: sometimes they take away any equipment or you have to carry it on your own. In this case, the buyer gets a serious discount and new equipment.

Where can I take a broken TV for money

Non-working equipment is often stored on balconies and storerooms, because it is a pity to throw out, even if it is not amenable to repair. Even such TV can be handed over for little money for parts. At the same time, the old equipment is quoted higher than the modern one, because parts from it are no longer produced. The equipment of the past is gladly taken away by electronics repair enthusiasts who can sell a broken TV for parts.

Kinescopic

Such TVs are mostly taken by private specialists, because service centres  rarely specialize in old technology. Separately, it is worth mentioning where to hand over old TVs for money: vintage is in demand by design agencies, thematic institutions. The amount of money raised directly depends on the rarity of the model, its external condition and the buyer's desire to purchase. There is also the purchase of faulty televisions, which are engaged in private individuals or companies (many have seen the announcement of the purchase and free export).

LCD TV

With LCD appliances with flat screens, everything is a little more complicated: the majority of the elements in them are not so expensive, and rare parts are in most cases not amenable to repair. Sell ​​non-working flat TV can, if it is a rare, highly demanded model. In this case, they can be safely offered for parts to service centers in the city, workshops (not licensed but privately owned), which purchase parts themselves and receive old TVs for parts.

Video

Many people who are thinking about “where to rent an old TV?” May not even know what the history of this device was, and how many different models it existed.

The first TV era of the USSR

It can be said that the invention of the television took place gradually and consisted of several stages scattered in time and space. Historians argue that the idea of ​​transferring the image appeared long before our era, but the technical possibilities for the implementation of this idea appeared only in the twentieth century.

The first "TV" was mechanical - its principle of operation was based on the rotation of disks, in which there were holes through which luminous flux was supplied. It was invented back in 1884, received the name "Nipkow disk".

And in 1907, the first television prototypes were created, capable of using a cathode ray tube to convert the received electrical signal into an image. True, this TV could not show moving pictures, limited to a static image only.

The next step was the creation of a transmission electron tube equipped with a mosaic photocathode. It happened in 1923. After that, the production of television receivers began and television broadcasting appeared on the territory of some countries. By the way, perhaps even then appeared buying up TVs that went out of order.

However, serious serial production of televisions began only in the late 1940s. At that time they were only black and white. Colored appeared in 1953, and they received mass distribution only by the end of the 1960s.

The first kinescopes were so small that they had to install a magnifying lens in front of them. Initially, CRT (cathode ray tube) televisions functioned on the basis of electron tubes, then on lamp-semiconductor systems, then on transistors, and after some time, on microchips.

The first model of LCD TV with color screen was created in 1987. The diagonal of this screen was only 3 inches. A large-scale production of LCD TVs with a large diagonal was launched only in the beginning of the 21st century.

Old TV - recycle or throw in the trash?

Televisions, like many other appliances - devices are not eternal. Over time, they become unusable, and then the puzzled owners are wondering: is it possible to give a broken TV somewhere? Or just throw it away?

As for “throwing away”, you can answer unambiguously - it is forbidden to do this by law. And this is done for a reason: TVs (especially models with a CRT) contain toxic substances that, when released, can harm the environment. For example, older televisions equipped with a cathode ray tube may contain about 3 kg of lead. More modern models are also not without toxic components. Therefore, special procedures for the disposal of television equipment. Many companies are engaged in its disposal in Russia, and these services are available to anyone who wants to get rid of unnecessary TV. So there are plenty of options where to turn in the TV.

So it is not worth worsening the ecological situation, because we and our descendants have to live here. In addition, during the recycling process, some useful materials are released, which can still be useful, becoming a secondary raw material for the production of various goods.

Can I exchange an old TV for money or a discount?

Scrapping

In the old TV models there are non-ferrous metals, and if you spend a little time extracting them, you can get a few kilograms of copper. She would be happy to buy at the scrap metal collection point.

Sell ​​by listing

If the TV is outdated, but still works, there may well be those who want to buy it at an affordable price. Therefore, you should not be in a hurry to hand over this technique for recycling - it still may well be useful to someone.

Sell ​​to collectors

Of course, not every TV is of antiquarian value, but some rare collectors are ready to buy models for good money, even if the equipment is no longer working. So, before you consider the old TV useless rubbish, does not prevent to ask - is not this model a rarity?

Another good option is to sell a TV for parts.

Many companies (as well as private telemechanics), engaged in the repair of television equipment, are willing to buy old televisions, because they often contain a lot of quite usable elements. Often, from 2-3 broken TVs you can assemble one worker and then sell it.

Profitable exchange

Often, major appliance stores hold amazing promotions: they offer to give them an old TV in exchange for a good discount when buying a new one. If given such a chance - do not miss it! There are even more interesting offers, when in return you can buy any household appliances at a very favorable price. Why does the store need it? Old equipment is sent either to the same repair shops or to a recycling plant with which a contract has been concluded.

What can be found "valuable" in the old TV?

An alternative to sharing the TV can be turning it into a bedside table or table for flowers. There is also a more exotic option - to study electrical engineering, training on the radio elements that comprise it.

If we set ourselves the task of thoroughly studying materials of a certain value, which are contained in the composition of the old TV, then in some (but not all!) Models you can find:

• transformer;
• magnetic deflection system;
• copper;
• iron;
• tin;
• plastic;
• lamps;
• transistors;
• microchips;
• small amount of precious metals (silver, gold).

Therefore, the final decision to take you: to surrender the TV entirely, or pre-"gut" it in search of values?

One option to do with an old TV is to turn it into a decorative bedside table.

The EU directive WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) prescribes that all companies using televisions and other electronic equipment must dispose of them with the help of companies licensed to do so.

Televisions, like other household appliances, however practical and durable they may be, eventually break down. Therefore, the mass fraction of old and modern designs of TVs, among other wastes, is very, very large. At the state level, it is forbidden to throw televisions in non-specialized landfills and dispose of them by improper methods. However, this is not a problem at all: the Crystal of Purity company is always ready to take out, dispose of or recycle any old household appliances.

Who needs it:

shopping and supermarket equipment;

service centers;

individuals.

What is harmful TVs?

It would seem that such harmful can be on TVs? This is a very common misconception. Modern plasma and old electron-beam models contain sufficient amounts of lead oxide, mercury and many other harmful substances and compounds, not to mention the fact that they decompose for a very long time in natural environment.

Liquid-crystal TVs, as many studies show, have no harmful substances in their composition, but they also decompose for a very long time. Therefore, the disposal of household appliances is not just a matter of importance, but mandatory.

Recycling TVs and Screens

Most TVs have a huge amount of glass that can be used as recyclable materials. However, the situation is complicated by the fact that it has a special polarization filter, due to which the resulting cullet has low quality  and is suitable only as an additive in concrete, asphalt or other building materials.

As for the other parts: metal, plastic, wiring and electronic printed circuit boards - they are treated the same way as with similar parts in a different technique. All plastic and metal is recycled with the specified parameters. All elements that have not been broken down are soldered from the boards; gold and platinum are removed by chemical means. After that, the remains of the boards are also crushed.

Morally and physically obsolete TVs are increasingly changing to new models. They are more functional and do much less harm to the environment than lamp products. But throwing faulty equipment in a normal trash bin is not allowed. It must be properly neutralized, otherwise poisonous barium vapors and metals can poison the soil, underground water and air. Barium compounds also provoke serious respiratory diseases in humans.

Removal of old televisions is necessary for their subsequent disposal. This is a technologically complex process, so it is entrusted to professionals. If you take out and recycle equipment with the involvement of specialists from a licensed company, you can avoid a considerable fine and protect the environment and people from the negative effects of hazardous compounds. the federal law  “On production and consumption waste” and the SNiPs regulate the process of neutralization.

How is the disposal of old TVs?

The defective unit is placed in a fully sealed container for safe transportation to a special processing plant. First, the TV is carefully disassembled into its component parts - a kinescope, cables, lamps, electronic boards, non-ferrous and ferrous metals. These components may contain toxic fumes, so experts use protective masks and ammunition.

Decontaminated parts are placed in sealed containers, and then sent for recycling to secondary raw materials. The body of the TV is crushed by special equipment. The crushed metal and plastic are reused in production. Unsuitable parts that do not harm the environment must be disposed of.

When entrusting the disposal of man-made waste to professional workers, you will not have to:

• independently carry out large-sized equipment from home or office - the service workers will do everything themselves;
• pay a fine for storing technologically dangerous household appliances in a place not intended for this;
• worry about the safety of the environment and the health of people - professionals dispose of electrical appliances in harmless ways;
• draw up documentation confirming legal disposal on its own, - the company provides all licenses and documents.

After disassembling, equipment discards less than 20% of waste. The rest is sent for recycling to obtain harmless secondary raw materials. This allows you not to clutter up landfills with slowly decomposed components and protect nature.
