What we do

At Recycle Your Tec we can recycle your redundant computer systems for free, complying with the strict information security and environmental standards in the I.T recycling industry. Computer system recycling is an important part of The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE); a governmental initiative designed to reduce the amounts of waste reaching landfill. Recycling your laptop/computer is one of the most important aspects of the directive as:

  • Systems contain toxic materials & substances deemed unsuitable for landfill.
  • The Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS) has been brought it to tackle landfill pollution.
  • Computer system recycling is the dismantling and/or raw material recycling of laptop parts. Nothing goes to landfill and nothing is incinerated in the process.

At Recycle Your Tec, unwanted systems will be carefully & properly recycled, without the need to worry about pollution and permanent environmental damage. In most cases the items are reused by giving them a new home, we also may strip the item down & it’s working parts used to repair other systems.

Data Wiping

Data wiping is essential when it comes to disposing of redundant & faulty computer systems, but this must be done correctly & to the highest standards at the same time. The only way to permanently destroy data, without physically destroying hard disks is by overwriting the data through generating and recording random characters across the entire surface of the data retaining component/drive, resulting in all data being destroyed and file sizes reset to zero. Recycle Your Tec only use the latest methods & versions of industry-standard software (White Canyon) to ensure complete data sanitization on all devices which we process, giving you peace of mind that your data is safe in our hands.

Data Crushing

For organisations requiring high-security IT disposals, Recycle Your Tec can offer hard drive destruction using our crushing machine which meets all applicable high standards. The unit is specially designed for hard drive destruction & is one of the most commonly used machines in the computer recycling/data destruction industry. The device pierces through the hard disks spindles & physically creates ripples in the platters making it impossible to recover the data.
