The question everyone asks

Will I get money back for my old kit?

Possibly. It depends entirely on what you have and what condition it is in. Where equipment still holds genuine resale value, we can look at a rebate rather than simply recycling it, but that is a different service to a standard collection, so it is a conversation rather than a box you tick.

Tell us what you are disposing of and we will give you an honest answer either way.

Ask about a rebate

What makes a rebate likely

Equipment under roughly five years old
Working, with no significant damage
Volume rather than one or two items
Business-grade rather than consumer kit

None of these are rules. They are just what tends to matter.

Certifications, explained

What each one actually means for you

ISO 27001: Information security. Our handling of your data is independently audited, not just promised in a brochure. If you only check one, check this one.
ISO 14001: Environmental management. It is why we can evidence where your equipment actually ended up.
ISO 9001: Quality management. The process we show you is the process you get, every collection.
Waste Carrier LicenceCBDU609517: Registered upper tier. We are licensed to carry waste, which is what makes your Waste Transfer Note worth having.
S2 ExemptionWEX473365: Our own site is permitted to store and treat what we collect, so your kit is not passed down a chain you cannot see.
T11 ExemptionEPWEEE/T11/EXP/QS3295UJ/2026: Covers treatment of waste electrical and electronic equipment at our own site. An address update is in progress with the Environment Agency, so a new reference is expected in due course.

Testimonials

It has been a massive help and given us some much-needed space back. Plus, it is wonderful to know that the computers might be useful to someone one day.

Selina, Education Business Partnership

Your guys arrived this morning and picked up our recycling items: professional and helpful as always. I did offer them a cup of tea, but they didn’t have time.

Steve Hoyland, Operational Solutions

I’d like to shout out the engineers who performed the collection. Both very friendly and professional, great impression.

Edenred

FAQs

What happens to the data on our old computers?

Every drive is erased to current NCSC guidance. You receive a Certificate of Data Destruction within 28 working days of collection, along with a data wiping report that lists each drive and the wiping method used on it.

How much does IT disposal cost?

Collection is free when there is enough reusable value in the load to cover the cost of doing the job. Where there is more than enough, you may get money back. Where there is not, we tell you what it would cost and agree it with you before anything is booked.

How quickly can you collect?

Often within days of your enquiry. Larger or multi-site projects need longer, because the logistics take planning. Tell us what you have and where it is, and we will give you a date.

Can you collect from more than one site?

Yes. We will work out a viable approach with you, which can include keeping each site’s devices separate through the process so your reporting stays accurate site by site. Two of the case studies above are exactly that kind of job.

What happens to equipment that still works?

It is tested and refurbished rather than shredded, then sold or donated to new owners across the UK. That is the point of the process rather than a by-product of it, and it is what makes free collection possible.

Tell us what you have and where it is

No obligation. If we are not the right fit we will say so.
