Question

Are old desktop towers worth anything?

I have a few old desktop computer towers that are complete but old and although they work they're not good for using now.

They're slow and obsolete with Windows XP installed on them.

Are these old desktop computer towers worth anything and how can I get rid of them?

Answer 1

Some scrap metal yards will buy your old desktop computer as a desktop computer for scrap metal since the desktop computer contains precious metals such as gold.

You won't get much for just a couple of desktop computers but it would be better than going to the landfill.

You could also advertise the old desktop computers on Craigslist as scrap metal and someone should come by to get them from you buy you may have to give them to them for it to be worth it to take them.

Some counties and cities also have electronic recycling programs where you can drop off your old electronics including computers to have recycled.
