IT Disposal and Computer Recycling, Nationwide Since 2014
Computer IT Disposals has handled the secure disposal of computers and redundant IT equipment for businesses, schools, NHS trusts and public sector organisations since 2014. Whether you are clearing a single office or decommissioning across multiple sites, we collect using our own GPS-tracked vehicles and security-vetted drivers, process everything at our Environment Agency licensed facility within five working days, and return the paperwork your compliance team needs for internal records or ISO audits — asset audit report, WEEE disposal certificate and data destruction certificates.
Collection is free for 20 or more qualifying items in England, Scotland and Wales — standard collections within a week, with same-day, out-of-hours and weekend collections available where downtime matters. Don’t have 20 items? No problem — email us your equipment list and we may still be able to offer free collection and data destruction. Either way, you’ll have a clear answer before you book.

We also provide confidential waste shredding for documents and paper records. You receive a data destruction certificate — per device or consolidated, your choice — within five working days, alongside your WEEE disposal certificate. Your certificates provide the documented audit trail that UK GDPR accountability requires when disposing of data-bearing equipment. All destruction is carried out by BS 7858 security-vetted staff.
Chain of Custody You Can Verify
From your door to destruction, your equipment never leaves our control:
- GPS-tracked vehicles with equipment secured in locked cages and secure containers in transit
- Alarmed, access-controlled facility with CCTV monitored out of hours by an external security company
- ITAD portal — every asset logged with make, model, serial number, asset tag, hard drive serial and grading status, visible to you
- Collections by our own employed, BS 7858-vetted drivers and staff — never couriers or subcontractors
100% Diverted from Landfill — With the Report to Prove It
Nothing we collect goes to landfill. Every item is reused, remarketed or recycled back into the supply chain — and with every collection we can provide an Environmental Impact / ESG Report: a full breakdown of the material received, how much was reused, how much was recycled, and which material streams it entered. Evidence ready to hand straight to your sustainability or ESG team.
