Good evening

Introducing our Company

Based in Telford, Shropshire, Recycle IT 4U was formed over 5 years ago to 
help organisations
dispose of electronic equipment in an environmentally friendly manner.
The senior management at Recycle IT 4U have 26 years combined experience in 
the IT trade and
these managers are able to discern which items can be refurbished. They are 
also fully aware of
the importance of the secure disposal of data stored on hard drives, media 
tapes, flash drives, CD and DVD media etc.

"Recycle IT 4u's primary aim is to try and simplify the IT recycling process 
for you."

Collection of redundant equipment

We offer a fast, efficient and friendly service with a simple automated 
collection system.
To book a collection you can either use our online form or you can speak to 
us direct during our
normal office hours. Our collection booking telephone number is 01952 
580814.

We will collect redundant PCs, laptops, monitors, servers, network products, 
printers,
telephones, mobiles, fax machines and fluorescent tubes.

Once we have confirmed your collection, one of our own
drivers will come and collect your unwanted
equipment at an agreed date and time.

An official WEEE disposal certificate will be issued, quoting serial number 
and
description of all the items collected.

Hazardous waste notes will be issued for redundant equipment such as 
monitors and fluorescent
tubes that contain hazardous materials.

SECURE DATA DESTRUCTION

The security of unwanted data held on file, either in paper form or by way 
of magnetic
media, computer hard drives, backup tapes, CD's or floppy drives is 
controlled by the Data
Protection Act 1998

We employ the ultimate method of destroying data, for highly sensitive 
information hard drives are
"smelted" in a furnace at 900 degrees. A certificate of complete destruction 
is then issued as
proof that the hard drives have been physically destroyed.This service is 
used by such organisations as banks, solicitors and ambulance services where
confidential information on hard drives demands the highest level of secure 
destruction.

Customers may escort their unwanted data to the smelting plant to witness 
the destruction.

We are also able to "clean" data from hard drives using specialised 
software.

We can ensure complete due diligence in computer recycling. Our processes 
prevent identity
theft and thoroughly hinders all known techniques of hard disk forensic 
analysis.

We will ensure your company conforms to I.T. disposal legislation.
Below is a list of current legislation you must be aware of...

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment - EU Directive 2003.

The WEEE, EU Directive came into force in February 2003 and provides for the 
safe disposal of anything that requires an electrical current to flow 
through it to operate, has to be recycled in accordance with the standards 
set out in the directive. This includes all I.T. equipment.

The Data Protection Act 1998

The Data Protection Act requires that all information collected by an 
organisation be destroyed when the media on which it is stored becomes 
redundant, failure to do so may result in Crown Court Prosecution and 
unlimited fines, including personal compensation claims.

The Environment Act

Your company has a DUTY of CARE to take all reasonable measures to:-



  a.. Prevent the unauthorised or harmful disposal of waste by another 
person.
  b.. Prevent the escape of the waste from your or any other person`s 
control.
  c.. Ensure the transfer of waste, is only to an authorised person or to a 
person for authorised transport purpose.



You must ensure the proper and safe disposal of waste even after you have 
passed it on to another party such as a waste contractor, scrap merchant, 
recycler, local council or skip hire company. The Duty of Care has no time 
limit, and extends until the waste has either been disposed of or fully 
recovered.

Electrical Equipment (Safety Regulations) 1994

The safety of refurbished or second hand equipment is governed by these 
regulations.

Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992

Employers are required to ensure that activities involving manual contact 
with hazardous materials are avoided where this is reasonably practical.

Summary of the WEEE and RoHS Directives

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive was agreed on 
13 February 2003, along with the related Directive on Restrictions of the 
use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment 
(RoHS).

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE) aims to 
minimise the impacts of electrical and electronic equipment on the 
environment during their lifetimes and when they become waste. It applies to 
a huge spectrum of products. It encourages and sets criteria for the 
collection, treatment, recycling and recovery of waste electrical and 
electronic equipment. It makes producers responsible for financing most of 
these activities (producer responsibility). Private householders are to be 
able to return WEEE without charge.

The RoHS Directive will ban the placing on the EU market of new electrical 
and electronic equipment containing more than agreed levels of lead, 
cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and 
polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) flame retardants from 1 July 2006. 
There are a number of exempted applications for these substances. RoHS takes 
its scope broadly from the WEEE Directive. Manufacturers will need to ensure 
that their products - and their components - comply in order to stay on the 
Single Market. If they do not, they will need to redesign products.

It's not easy disposing of your redundant IT equipment these days

With the ongoing WEEE Directives that were introduced on January 2nd 2007 
and the hazardous
waste directives that came way back in July 2005, there are now a whole 
bunch of hoops to jump
through to ensure that you are disposing of IT equipment legally.

"Recycle IT 4u's primary aim is to try and simplify the IT recycling process 
for you."

Disposing of old CRT monitors

CRT monitors are classed as hazardous waste and contain approximately 4lb of 
lead in the
screen to protect you from radiation.

In order for us to collect your monitors you must register your premises as 
a hazardous waste
producer. This enables us to collect your waste equipment within the WEEE 
guidelines.


You can do this online for just £18 at:

  a.. 
https://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/apps/hazwaste/registrationwelcome.jsp



You will be issued with a Premises Code, enabling us to complete our 
hazardous waste
forms and then make your collection. There are exemptions for various 
offices and shops etc. but
these only apply to producers of under 200kg per year (this is equivalent to 
about ten monitors).

We will supply you with a Hazardous Waste Consignment Note for your records 
and future
audits.

LEGISLATION

We will ensure your company conforms to I.T. disposal legislation.
Below is a list of current legislation you must be aware of...

> The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive was agreed on
> 13 February 2003, along with the related Directive on Restrictions of the
> use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment
> (RoHS).
>
> The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE) aims to
> minimise the impacts of electrical and electronic equipment on the
> environment during their lifetimes and when they become waste. It applies to
> a huge spectrum of products. It encourages and sets criteria for the
> collection, treatment, recycling and recovery of waste electrical and
> electronic equipment. It makes producers responsible for financing most of
> these activities (producer responsibility). Private householders are to be
> able to return WEEE without charge.
>
> The RoHS Directive will ban the placing on the EU market of new electrical
> and electronic equipment containing more than agreed levels of lead,
> cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and
> polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) flame retardants from 1 July 2006.
> There are a number of exempted applications for these substances. RoHS takes
