Our Secure IT Recycling Process

1. Book Your Free Collection

Call or email us to schedule a convenient pickup from your Birmingham premises, with next-day and same-week slots available.

2. On-Site Collection by Vetted Staff

Our security-vetted team collects your equipment under full chain of custody and logs each item for traceability.

3. Certified Data Destruction

All data-bearing devices are erased to NIST 800-88 / HMG IS5 or physically shredded, with a serial-matched Certificate of Destruction issued. Witnessed on-site destruction is available on request.

4. Ethical Recycling & Reuse

Working equipment is refurbished for reuse; everything else is broken down for material recovery through licensed UK facilities. Nothing goes to landfill.

5. Full Documentation & ESG Data

You receive a Certificate of Destruction, asset report and Waste Transfer Note, plus carbon-saving figures to support your compliance and Scope 3 sustainability reporting.

Secure Data Destruction You Can Prove

Old computers hold customer records, financial data and confidential business information – and simply deleting files or reformatting a drive still leaves that data recoverable. Before any device is recycled or reused, Computer Waste Recycling identifies every data-bearing item and erases it to NIST 800-88 / HMG IS5 standards using certified software, or physically shreds it for maximum security. You receive a serial-matched Certificate of Destruction, with witnessed destruction available for high-security Birmingham clients in finance, legal and healthcare, giving you complete, provable GDPR compliance.
