Reasons to Use WEEE Tech for Your Corporate Computer Destruction

The UK is one of the biggest offenders in the world when it comes to electronic waste. As recently as two years ago, it was producing an average of 24kg of e-waste per person, behind only Norway.

However, the Global E-waste Monitor report also notes that Europe has one of the highest rates of e-waste recycling in the world - thanks to the efforts of companies like WEEE Technology. 

We specialise in corporate computer disposal in Central London. Here are the key reasons to use us if you have any unwanted laptops, desktop PCs or any other high-tech electronic items your business needs to get rid of.

Our Convenience

We make it easy for you to dispose of your unwanted e-waste responsibly and legally. Simply fill in our ‘Get a Quote’ form, entering the items you would like to recycle and your contact details to get an idea of the cost. If you are happy with the quote, we have a separate page here, where you can arrange the collection of your old tech.

We also offer the WEEElie Tech Bin, which allows you to dispose of your unwanted computers and tech in your own time. Just give us a call when you’re done, and we will come and pick it up.

As well as laptops and PCs, we can also responsibly dispose of a wide variety of other tech, including servers, monitors, tablets, smartphones and smartboards, printers, copiers, scanners and batteries.  We will help take care of all the paperwork for you too.

 

Our Associated Services

We don’t just take your unwanted e-waste away, we make sure that it’s properly dealt with. As part of this, we offer highly reputable data destruction and erasure services, completed using high-grade software that ensures that any data is safely destroyed or wiped  - we will give you a certificate to prove it. If you would like to destroy your data yourself, we are partners of Global Lifecycle Solutions EMEA, so we can sell you the software that will enable you to do this.

We also offer a rebate service where, if we can sell any of your computers or laptops on, we will split any profits with you, which could be financially advantageous for you as well.

 

Our Regulatory Compliance

When it comes to safe and secure corporate computer disposal, it isn’t just about taking the equipment away, it is also about making sure that all the legal requirements are met. We hold all the relevant accreditations, including a Waste Carriers’ Licence and a T11 Waste Exemption Licence from the Environment Agency.

We also have an ICO Data Protection registration which means we are legally obliged to protect any information that we hold or process, which is even more important since the introduction of the GDPR regulations

Our Commitment to Avoid Landfill

We always do our utmost to avoid sending anything to a landfill site. That is why we follow the Government-approved WEEE Hierarchy – Prevention, Re-Use, Recycling, Recovery, and, if all else fails, disposal, which you can read more about here.

If there is anything that can’t be resold or recycled, it is dismantled and sold to specialist companies such as precious metal refiners, plastics and metal merchants, or other specific e-waste companies.
