Some organisations prefer the convenience of having a secure bin for recycling their IT waste. Zero Bin is a secure on-site solution for recycling waste electrical items that helps your business to stay compliant with WEEE regulations.

Questions? See our Zero Bin FAQs

* Please note: If the bins contain non-electrical items, or items we don’t accept, there will be a cleaning/disposal charge of £75 (ex. VAT). If your bin is damaged beyond redeployment, then the initial charge for the bin applies for a replacement. You can also put chargeable items into the bin, which will be invoiced once the bin is processed at our facility.

Zero bins come in 3 different sizes.

Our smallest bin is the same size as your typical household collection wheelie bin and could accommodate up to around 80 laptops for example. A 660L bin could hold up to 240 laptops, and our biggest bin at 1100L would comfortably hold up to 400 laptops.   We also supply an indoor pallet box which holds up to 820L.

FAQs

What is a Zero bin?

A Zero Bin is a secure, lockable mobile container kept on your premises for collecting old IT devices as they become obsolete.

What are the advantages of an onsite recycling bin?

Onsite Zero Bins give you somewhere to put redundant IT equipment the moment it stops being used, rather than risking storing it in a cupboard until you have a bulk collection. That matters more than it sounds. Every laptop or hard drive sitting in storage is a device that could be reused sooner, and a data security risk that has not yet been dealt with.

Zero Bin works best for a steady trickle of redundant devices rather than a one off clear out – it helps keep your office space clean and tidy whilst keeping your devices secure until they are wiped, reused or recycled.

How much do Zero Bins cost?

– 240L Zero Bin – £165.00 (Inc. VAT)
