** While the tide is changing, the unfortunate truth is that a lot of
computer equipment still winds up in landfills, leaching toxic materials
into the soil and groundwater. With a little bit of extra effort, you
can take a greener path.
** There are several different ways to remove the data from your hard
drive. One way is to use software that erases the drive completely.
However, there's no way to guarantee that this software will effectively
destroy all the data. A better option is to take the drive to Able IT
Logistics Ltd.
** These days, any computer that is more than 3 years old will be
noticeably slower in its performance than a computer that has been
manufactured in the last few months.

DISPOSAL and RECYCLING COMPUTERS
All of which are serious issues that ABLE IT Logistics Ltd can resolve
easily.
Please give us a call on:
** Business owners often interpret these varied and ambiguous disposal
laws differently, to suit their current state of mind; but in doing so
can be prosecuted.
** For those companies looking to avoid landfilling their computer
equipment for environmental reasons, there is the added challenge of
identifying us as a responsible recycler. In doing this they avoid their
computer being shipped to 3rd world countries and their apparent
securely removed data becoming available to them with sophisticated data
recovery software. Such business information could be become a valuable
tool to your competitors.
** In the best of all worlds, you can anticipate rollouts of new
computers and changes in the business climate to plan your procurement
and ultimate replacement of IT assets.

Recycling is the buzz word of the 21st Century, with everyone eager to
prove their green credentials and help cut carbon emissions. And when it
comes to disposing of old or redundant computers it is no different;
whether you run a business or you have equipment at home it's all about
computer recycling! But, it's much more than ensuring that you look to be
doing the right thing; refurbishing and recycling computers forms a very
important part of a sustainable waste strategy. It is also an effective
way of ensuring that computers are re-used in a socially responsible
manner within the UK or used to aid Third World development as they can
also be exported to countries in need.
Following the introduction of the WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment) EEC Directive which became effective in the UK on 2 January
2007, the disposal of computers is now strictly regulated.
If in
doubt please contact us and we will be
able to advise you of your legal obligations.
As well as giving sound advice we can arrange
to remove your equipment. We will also ensure that all information held
on the computer memory is permanently wiped from the hard disks and will
provide an audit report showing exactly what has happened to your
equipment; how it has been processed and where it has gone. So, whether it
has been recycled and sent out to other locations or totally destroyed it
will be listed on your audit report.
Although the WEEE regulations became law on 1 January 2007, the phasing of
the legislation means that recycling of household goods will not be
covered until
1 July 2007. But, businesses are now liable so you must be aware of the
regulations as they affect your business and your liability when it comes
to the
disposal of your computer and electrical equipment.
