IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) Services

Consultation & Agreement: Our dedicated account managers work with you to understand your specific requirements, including data sensitivity, asset volumes, and reporting needs. We establish a clear service agreement outlining all terms and SLAs.

Detailed Asset Inventory: We collaborate on a precise inventory of your IT assets (make, model, serial number, etc.) for accurate tracking and reporting.

Secure On-site Collection: Trained and vetted Restore Technology personnel perform secure collection using company-owned vehicles with tracking capabilities. Strict chain of custody protocols are initiated with signed documentation at the point of transfer.

Secure Processing Facility: Assets are transported to our secure facility and undergo rigorous verification against the initial inventory.

Data Sanitisation: For reusable assets, we employ industry-leading software to perform multi-pass data overwriting. Detailed erasure logs and certificates are generated for each asset.

Physical Data Destruction: For sensitive or non-functional devices, we offer secure physical destruction methods, including shredding and degaussing, often with video recording for audit trails. Certificates of destruction are provided.

Comprehensive Asset Assessment: Post data processing, each asset is carefully evaluated for its potential for resale or reuse based on condition and market value.

Secure Remarketing Channels: Viable assets are securely wiped (if not already done) and remarketed through trusted channels, maximising potential returns.

Environmentally Compliant Recycling: Non-resalable assets are dismantled and responsibly recycled through certified e-waste partners adhering to stringent environmental regulations (e.g., WEEE Directive). We prioritise material recovery and minimise landfill waste.

Comprehensive Reporting Package: You receive detailed reports tailored to your needs, including:

• Asset inventory reconciliation.
• Chain of custody documentation.
• Certificates of data erasure or destruction (by serial number).
• Details of data sanitisation/destruction methods used.
• Environmental compliance information and recycling certificates.
• Remarketing revenue reports (if applicable).

Regulatory Compliance: Our processes are designed to meet or exceed relevant data privacy regulations (e.g., GDPR and environmental standards).

IT Asset Disposition (ITAD), as handled by Restore Technology, is simply the process of securely and responsibly dealing with your old or unwanted IT equipment when you no longer need it. This includes making sure any data on the devices is completely destroyed (often through physical shredding at our UK facilities) and then either recycling the materials or, if possible, reusing the equipment in an environmentally friendly way. We provide a clear record of this process to show that it has been done correctly and securely. This involves a few key steps:

• We carefully track and manage your assets from the moment they leave your premises.
• We ensure any sensitive data is completely and irreversibly destroyed – often through secure asset disposal methods guaranteeing it can never be recovered.
• We assess if any equipment can be refurbished and reused, extending its lifecycle and promoting sustainability.
• Finally, for items beyond reuse, we handle environmentally sound recycling, recovering valuable materials and minimising electronic waste in accordance with UK regulations.

Proper ITAD ensures that sensitive data is securely destroyed, hardware is recycled or repurposed in line with environmental laws, and compliance with data protection regulations such as GDPR is maintained.

We follow all relevant regulations including GDPR for data security and the WEEE Directive for environmental compliance. Any non-recyclable parts are also disposed of in compliance with all environmental regulations.
