We use a team of our own trained operatives to ensure the equipment is collected and transported carefully as well as helping to reduce your resource investment. We can also arrange collections outside of normal office hours including evenings and weekends to help minimise disruption to your business if preferred. Our account managers will work with you to understand the configuration, age quality, and quantity of your used computer equipment, together with your business objectives in order to determine which service or combination of services will offer your organisation the most value. With I.T. Trading UK Ltd, you can be assured that the security of your data is our primary concern. Whether hard disks, floppy disks, CDs, USB storage, data tapes etc, nothing is allowed to leave our warehouse until we are satisfied all data has been removed and/or rendered non-recoverable. We appreciate that most of our customer’s use data that may be of a confidential and/or sensitive nature. This is why we keep equipment under quarantine conditions in our warehouse until the data has been destroyed, and the client has given authority to release the equipment for resale. We data wipe to our Clients instructions, and use the latest proprietary software to meet to the standards defined by the Security Equipment Assessment Panel (SEAP), which conforms to all requirements of UK and US Government legislation, including the Data Protection Act. Unlike some of our competitors who just remove data partitions and reformat I.T. Trading UK Ltd use specialist software to overwrite and fully destroy resident data. Any hard disk that fails data wiping, cannot be accessed or is found to be faulty, is removed from the PC and physically destroyed. This ensures complete data security from our client’s point of view. Destroyed hard disks are sent to the licensed metal refiners for recycling.

IT Trading UK Limited’s computer equipment recycling services can help to enhance your organisations’ environmental credentials by taking redundant, surplus and obsolete items, repairing and remarketing where possible, whilst recovering scrap materials and components for recycling in compliance with all UK and EU legislation. Importantly IT Trading does not have a policy of sending scrap to landfill sites.We recognize there may be value in the remaining remarketable components and as such a large proportion of otherwise classified scrap equipment is marked as suitable for spares and so only dispose of the faulty non-marketable components. If equipment is immediately classified fit only for disposal, without examining the possibilities of recovering usable components, this removes the opportunity for revenue return, as well as increasing disposal and transportation costs. By passing equipment to be broken down into reusable components, or replacing the faulty components, we are able to significantly reduce client disposal costs as well as increase the revenue return on the marketable equipment. As such the recycling route is only taken for equipment with no further use, is damaged beyond repair, of no value to charitable organisations, or no longer marketable. UK and EU environmental legislation surrounding the transportation and processing of IT recycling and disposal is very complex, as an example; since July 2005 scrap CRT monitors have been classified as hazardous waste by the UK Government, and only companies such as IT Trading who have been licensed by the Environment Agency are permitted to transport and process such items. By using IT Trading to manage the removal/recycling processing of your redundant IT equipment you can ensure your organisation fully meets its legal and environmental responsibilities. IT Trading UK Limited is licensed by the Environment Agency to carry and process redundant IT equipment. All scrap materials are passed to licensed Waste Management contractors to ensure environmental duty of care obligations are met. Recycling sites and processes are audited to ensure that environmental practices are maintained and legal compliance is assured in line with ISO 14001 environmental management certification and WEEE directives.
