Asset Disposal Services

Effective asset disposal is essential whether you’re upgrading existing installations, downsizing or deploying new systems. Disposing of existing equipment can be time-consuming, risky, and disruptive for critical business processes, particularly in a complex multi-service environment.

The IT asset disposal industry has undergone numerous changes over the last few years to comply with new directives and Government-driven legislation being introduced, the most relevant being the WEEE Directive. To find out more about the WEEE Directive visit www.dti.gov.uk.

Many organisations are currently using alternative means of disposal as a part of their Environmental Policies and to protect themselves from the implications of the WEEE directive. For instance, donating equipment to local charity, or to good causes in other countries; although laudable there can be significant downsides to such an appeal. Donating equipment potentially merely delays the ultimate environmental impact. Alternative means of disposal that generate money for your organisation whilst still benefiting good causes are available.

As “disposal route” industries themselves are generally still unregulated it is vital that you consider your route carefully, protect your data, your reputation and the environment.

Our Asset Disposal Service

Enline plc is dedicated to responsibly recycle and manage unwanted IT assets to ensure minimum impact on the environment, and we are continually working to improve our procedures and performance. We strive to achieve a policy of reuse, not recycling, dispersal not destruction. We aim to act in a responsible and committed way to both our clients and the environment.

Our asset disposal service removes all redundant IT equipment, disposing and recycling items on behalf of clients to provide a WEEE compliant, total lifecycle solution that provides remuneration for disposed items. In fact our service exceeds all relevant UK and European legislation. We will agree a quantity and predetermined quality/standard of the kit to be collected, subject to a minimum quantity of 40 items.

Our service aims to conquer the 3 major challenges of Asset Disposal which are:

  • Secure removal of sensitive data.
  • Maximising reuse and residual value of equipment.
  • Compliance with stringent environment and duty of care legislation as an employer and an individual.

Data Security

Data security is your organisation’s responsibility. We provide the very highest standard of data erasure using the world class Blancco Infosec program which overwrites data and use exact, quality-controlled, fully documented procedures to ensure 100% erasure of your data and identification. All evidence of previous ownership is removed in either, label, tag or data form from all items collected from any location on instruction of our client.

All existing data and forms of identification are fully erased from hard disks, storage media and hardware using documented, quality-controlled processes that exceed the highest security standards, including Infosec 5 and international defence standards. Certified evidence of disposal and proof of data erasure in the form of detailed certificates is provided. This protects your confidential business data and ensures compliance with data protection legislation and software licensing agreements.
