IT, Electrical Equipment and Computer Recycling & Disposal Services (WEEE)
PHS Datashred provides computer disposal and recycling services to ensure the secure destruction of confidential data.
Discarded business plans, financial reports, contracts and invoices are items you wouldn't want falling into the wrong hands. And they're all on your hard drive. We offer safe destruction of all computers, IT hardware and data as well as all electrical office equipment, including mobile phones, fax machines, photocopiers and similar products.
Here's a quick summary of the WEEE recycling process:
- We collect your old equipment in unmarked vehicles, so nobody knows what's been collected.
- Every item is listed and a receipt issued.
- Resalable items are taken out, data removed, refurbished and sold with your permission.
- Non-sellable items and computer parts such as hard drives carrying sensitive data are crushed into small fragments to ensure the destruction of all data. The pieces are separated into various metals and plastics for recycling. VDU screens are degassed and dismantled for recycling.
- Finally, we issue a certificate of destruction.
Why can't I give my computer away?
Because you'll risk confidential data falling into the wrong hands and you won't have an audit trail to track where your material has gone.
