Reuse Partnership · new from Free Geek Toronto

Retire your laptops. Get proof they're wiped. See exactly who they help.

For Toronto offices retiring 10–50 laptops. Send them to Free Geek Toronto instead of a trade-in, a drawer or a shredder: every drive gets a certified data wipe, and each laptop becomes an affordable computer for a student, newcomer or family here in the city.

FreeThe Community tier costs nothing, for good. It includes everything below:

  • Certified data wipe for every drive
  • A numbered certificate for every batch
  • Your impact dashboard
  • Your name on the Partner Wall, if you opt in

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Tell us what you have

    List your laptops in a 4-step form. It takes about five minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Pick a week

    Choose a week our bench has room for, then drop off (or we pick up).

  3. Step 3

    Certified data wipe

    Staff verify every wipe. Volunteers refurbish each laptop and it gets a Device Passport.

  4. Step 4

    See who it helps

    Get your certificate, then follow each laptop's passport to the student or family it reaches.

Certified data wipe. We can prove it.

  • Leave the drives in. Free Geek Toronto wipes every drive with its own sanitization software, which produces a report for each device.
  • A staff member — never a volunteer — verifies every wipe before a device can be refurbished or sold.
  • Every step is logged in an append-only chain of custody that no one can edit afterwards.
  • You get a numbered certificate listing each device, its serial number, wipe method and verification date, with a public verification link.

Start free. Upgrade only if you want more.

Free Geek Toronto never charges for reuse. Paid memberships are optional, for businesses that want more reporting and recognition. What matters most is your laptops.
