Simple service to support your IT waste needs
1. Asset Appraisal & Recording
We’ll conduct a full appraisal of your redundant IT equipment so we can provide you with an accurate recycling cost. During the disposal or recycling process, we’ll compile a full asset list that contains information about the equipment that’s been handed over to us. This includes a unique asset number, the make and model of the equipment, the item condition, the data removal process (if required) and the Cashback/disposal avenue. A copy of this audit will be provided to you upon completion for your records.
2. Payment
Cashback. Some of your old IT equipment may still have some residual value. In this instance, we will offset the value against the cost of recycling.
3. Logistics
We provide a dedicated collection service to local Organisations that are located throughout Essex, Herts and Cambridge. We can provide small office clearances, or we provide a corporate IT recycling service for bigger collections. Every collection is processed at our head office in Essex.

Fully compliant Data Destruction services.
According to the 1998 Data Protection Act, all organisations have a legal
requirement to apply appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorised access, loss, modification
and destruction of personally identifiable data. Failure to comply will result in prosecution and fines.
Our data destruction services ensure that your sensitive Company and client data is destroyed or erased by using methods that confirm to regulatory compliance.
- Data overwriting - We offer a data overwriting service that eclipses the American Military DOD 52220.22-M standards that are used as the benchmark for overwriting data a minimum of 3 times. We’ll overwrite your hard disk over 99 times to ensure that your data is completely erased.
- Hard Drive crushing – Our hard drive crusher is used to destroy hard disks that cannot be erased. The crusher will damage your hard drives to the point where it becomes impossible to recover data from the platters. Once crushed, the remaining waste is processed into raw material.
- Hard Drive shredding – Hard drive shredding is the ultimate data destruction service. You’ll have peace of mind knowing that your data has been safely destroyed by shredding your redundant hard disks into 4mm particles
- Other hardware shredding services – We can shred most other storage devices that could potentially contain personally identifiable and company sensitive data. These include USB sticks and pen drives, Optical Media, DLT and DAT Backup tapes
