SECURE DATA DESTRUCTION

Dispose of the Hardware.
Deal With the Data.

Secure data destruction helps businesses remove redundant IT equipment while addressing the sensitive information that may still be stored inside it.

From hard drives and SSDs to laptops, computers and servers, we can support data destruction requirements alongside the collection and disposal of redundant business IT.

WHY IT MATTERS

Removing the Device
Doesn’t Remove the Data.

Old IT equipment can still contain business information long after it has stopped being used.

Laptops, computers, servers, hard drives, SSDs and other storage devices may retain files, user information, internal documents and other sensitive data. That means the data needs to be considered alongside the physical equipment when assets are being disposed of.

01
BUSINESS INFORMATION

Data Can Remain on Old Devices

Removing equipment from daily use does not necessarily mean the information stored on it has gone.

02
DATA-BEARING ASSETS

Storage Media Needs Its Own Plan

Hard drives, SSDs and other storage devices may need destruction or erasure depending on the intended onward route.

03
DISPOSAL PROCESS

Deal With Data Before the Final Route

Data handling should be considered before equipment is reused, recovered, recycled or otherwise processed.

04
PROJECT CONTROL

Build It Into the Collection

Data requirements can be planned alongside the collection of redundant business IT rather than treated as an afterthought.

Where Could Your
Business Data Be?

Sensitive information can remain across a wide range of workplace technology.

Identifying which assets may contain stored information is an important part of planning a secure IT disposal project.

HOW IT WORKS

From Your Workplace
to the Final Data Route.

01 IDENTIFY

Tell Us What You Have

Let us know the equipment, quantity, location and any specific data handling requirements.

02 COLLECT

Arrange the Collection

We plan the collection around your workplace, access and project requirements.

03 PROCESS

Destroy or Erase

Data-bearing equipment follows the agreed destruction or erasure route.

04 COMPLETE

Move to the Next Route

Equipment can then move towards reuse, asset recovery or recycling as appropriate.

MORE THAN DATA DESTRUCTION

Data Is Only One Part
of IT Disposal.

Secure data destruction can form part of a wider IT asset disposal project.

If your organisation is replacing a large quantity of IT, closing a site, relocating or clearing multiple workplaces, we can combine data handling with equipment collection, asset records, reuse and recycling.

SECURE DATA DESTRUCTION FAQs

Questions About
Destroying Business Data?

Some common questions about data-bearing IT equipment, destruction, erasure and business collections.

01 What equipment can contain sensitive data? +

Computers, laptops, servers, hard drives, SSDs and other storage devices may all contain business or organisational information.

02 What is the difference between destruction and erasure? +

Physical destruction makes the storage media unsuitable for further use, while data erasure may allow suitable hardware to remain in use afterwards.

03 Can data destruction be included with an IT collection? +

Yes. Data handling requirements can be incorporated into a wider business IT collection or IT asset disposal project.

04 Can you handle large quantities of hard drives? +

Projects can be planned around anything from smaller office clear-outs to larger quantities of redundant data-bearing equipment.

05 Can reusable equipment still have its data removed? +

Where suitable, data erasure may form part of a reuse or asset recovery route.

06 Do you collect from multiple business locations? +

Yes. Projects can be arranged around individual sites or multiple business locations across the UK.
