It’s in good hands, if it’s handheld
We know how important it is for your team to have the latest tech when showcasing your brand. Unfortunately, old devices just don’t cut it, so we’ll recycle any phone, tablet or handheld device used for business, no matter the make, model or condition.
Putting the planet first by recycling business mobiles keeps old devices out of landfills, and it gives a second life to valuable components like circuit boards, LCD screens, memory cards, metals, plastics, and aluminium. These materials can be reused in manufacturing, making the process more sustainable.
Whatever make, model or age—we can recycle all old business mobile phones, tablets and chargers, including the management of old device batteries to reduce the risk of fire. It’s in good hands if it’s hand-held
We collect all brands and types of mobile phones including iPhone, Android, blackberry, windows phones, smart phones, flip phones, rugged phones, retro phones. We also collect tablets and EPOS hardware including iPads, windows tablets, e-readers and kindles, rugged tablets, terminals, scanners, tablets, printers, card readers of any brand (Epson, Zebra, Honeywell, Datalogic, Star Micronics, ELO etc.) → See a list of everything we collect.
3 simple steps to secure your data before recycling
- Back up important files, such as documents and photos, and transfer them to your new device if required or back up in the cloud.
- Sign out of all accounts on your device, that means all apps for example expense software, apps used for communication, approvals etc.
- Remove any SIM or memory cards if possible, although these can also be recycled.
We also recycle EPOS systems
EPOS systems streamline the retail sales process, but once they reach the end of their life, they can create a lot of e-waste. The good news is we can responsibly recycle all the connected EPOS hardware of any brand (e.g. Epson, Zebra, Honeywell, Datalogic, Star Micronics, ELO etc.), including monitors, customer display readouts, receipt printers, PDQ terminals, keyboards, barcode scanners, and cash drawers to keep waste to a minimum and disposal eco-friendly.
