Secure Data Destruction in Bolton (GDPR Compliant)

Old devices often hold sensitive personal, financial and commercial data that must be destroyed to stay compliant with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act. We remove that risk entirely. Data is eliminated using certified software wiping or physical hard drive shredding – reducing drives to an average particle size of around 35mm so information can never be recovered.

On-site or off-site data destruction is available, and you receive a formal Certificate of Data Destruction plus asset logs for your audit, compliance and CSR reporting. Guidance on your obligations is available from the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).

WEEE Recycling & Environmental Responsibility

Under the UK’s Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations, businesses must make sure IT equipment is collected, treated and recycled correctly. Our Bolton service keeps you fully compliant while supporting your sustainability and net-zero goals – recovering valuable materials, maximising reuse and diverting electronics from landfill. Official WEEE guidance is published by the UK Government.
