Almost everyone has computers in their home. For various reasons, the motherboards in them may break or become obsolete. Over time, you may accumulate a number of such boards. For anyone who hasn’t thrown them out yet or hasn’t gotten rid of them in some way, I suggest you try scrapping them. I’ll tell you in the article how much you can earn if you sell two motherboards. I also want to note that we will consider the delivery of “modern” motherboards, starting with sockets for Pentium 4.
The photo shows two regular motherboards that are subject to scrapping. The photo shows two regular motherboards that are subject to scrapping.
Why two? The reason is that two boards, on average, will weigh about 1 kilogram. Prices at acceptance start from 1 kg. If you collect more, it will be even better. You can earn more.
The photo shows the weight of one motherboard, but the final weight will be smaller, since you have to remove the radiators and remove the battery. There will be 4 aluminum radiators, it is better to sell them separately for 25 to 50 rubles. a piece.

It is important not to bring non-ferrous metal scrap to the first collection point you come across. If they do accept it there, it’s at the price of regular scrap circuit boards; they’ll give you 60 rubles. We need a specialized collection point for computer scrap. It is important that before handing over, you must remove the battery from the board and disconnect the radiators. Aluminum radiators can be handed over as scrap non-ferrous metal or sold as a separate part on the same Avito or Yula, the price is 25-50 rubles per 1 piece. Someone needs these radiators, I sell them myself from time to time.
We find such collection points, monitor prices on the Internet or call these points. Wherever they offer the best price, we take it there. If there are no such acceptances in your locality, look for resellers; there are many advertisements on the Internet. They will come, weigh it and buy it, but the prices will not be as favorable if you rented it yourself.
What about the prices? They are all very expensive, on average for 1 kilogram, in our case, for two non-working or unnecessary motherboards, you can get from 200 to 300 rubles . In general, this is a normal amount; you can try to sell motherboards separately through Avito or Yula for spare parts, restoration, and the like. 200-250 rubles per piece . It’s rare, but sometimes they buy it depending on their luck.
