Computer Recycling Clear out for March
With the end of the financial tax year approaching we have noticed that a lot of businesses are now looking again at their store rooms with a view to clearing them out to make space for the next years redundant equipment.
Are you also looking at a full store room or just spending the last of your 08/09 budget?
We have been helping businesses across the UK so far this month with responsibily recycling of all their computer base units, computer monitors and other IT equipment including the secure destruction of the data and full compliance with UK Waste laws including provision of duty of care paperwork for all collections and certificates of destruction provided. See www.recycling4you.co.uk for more information

Computer Recycling HOW,WHY,WHO
How to do it?
For home users outside of Lincolnshire you should be able to take your computer to the local recycling centre where your local council should have a collection point for computers and monitors.
For Businesses - Unfortunately you are unable to use this solution, so your best solution is to save up the computers in a store room, until you have 20 or more items including the computer base units. This should then allow you to get a reasonable quote from a recycling company like Recycling4you for your computer recycling and also the collection and recycling of all the other electrical equipment you have collected.
Why do IT?
If i had a pound for every time, i had been told that someone's data, including their bank details were ok because they had deleted the file before disposing of computers i would be a very rich man.
If you only delete the file or even think you are doing the right thing by formatting the hard drive even if you know this. This still does not protect you from someone with software you can download from the internet for free, searching your old computer’s hard drive and retrieving your date including all your online banking details or business info. The only way to ensure you protect your confidential data is to either use a reputable company like recycling4you. If you are a home user and are dropping your computer off at the local recycling centre, ensure that you have either damaged the hard drive by drilling the hard drive or alternatively purchased a datawiping program and used it as per the instructions, performing 7 passes to ensure that the original data on the hard drive has been completely overwritten which is the only way to ensure your privacy and identity remain yours and not someone else’s.
Now Who do you call?
For peace of mind as a home user we can arrange for your computer to be collected from you if you can box the computer base unit up and ensure that it is recycled correctly and that all the data is securely destroyed on the hard drive. If in Lincolnshire we can arrange to collect direct from you if required.
For businesses if you can collect 20 or more items of computer equipment i.e computer base units, computer monitors, printers, other network equipment it then becomes cost effective for you to use our services to collect all your equipment and ensure that it is all recycled correctly here in the UK and in compliance with UK Data protection laws.
