Give your old server components a new life
Servers must be recycled by law, in line with the WEEE regulations.
Servers are complex machines which contain a range of valuable materials. However these can also be harmful to the environment, polluting soil and water if not disposed of properly.
We recycle servers responsibly, reusing parts like processors and memory which cuts down on the need for raw materials, saving energy and reducing the environmental impact of making new devices.
Did you know that you can recycle all components of servers and networking hardware? This includes motherboards, cards, and CPUs, which contain recoverable metals like copper, silver, gold, and silicon. Similarly, we’ll recycle the hard drives & storage arrays, cables, power supplies, and optical drives. Even the metal and plastic cases can be repurposed. Choose Zero Tech Waste and do your bit for the planet.
Secure server data destruction
Protecting confidential customer, employee and business data is critical, as unauthorised access could lead to financial losses, reputational damage, and regulatory fines. Our reliable, secure process ensures the safe handling and destruction of all sensitive data stored on servers at all stages of recycling. Plus, we can take away all your other IT recycling including computers, laptops, monitors and printers. We provide an all-in-one WEEE recycling solution.
Our certified and monitored process ensures the secure management and destruction of all sensitive data stored on equipment during collection, transit, and in our facilities, before it’s broken down or recycled.
We use the latest NCSC-approved data erasure software and CPNI-approved shredding technology to ensure the secure destruction of any confidential data stored on your computer is properly destroyed. You can be confident your IT recycling is in safe hands.
