1. Confirm scope
Agree the collection sites, asset types, capture requirements and the records needed for the project.
Off-site ICT data destruction
Off-site ICT data destruction
We collect approved data-bearing ICT equipment, transport it to a controlled processing facility, confirm what has been received and destroy the agreed media. You receive a certificate of destruction and supporting records showing what was collected, processed and any exceptions.
Why organisations choose off-site
Off-site destruction is often the practical alternative when the main job is to clear approved ICT assets quickly, keep site disruption low and still receive clear destruction records. It works well when devices are already staged for pickup, when collections need to happen across multiple sites or when your team does not need a mobile shred truck on location.
- Less time spent coordinating on-site access, cleared space and staff supervision
- Simpler collections from offices, clinics, warehouses, schools and multi-site operations
- Faster removal of boxed or staged ICT equipment during refreshes, relocations or closures
- Lower operational disruption while still maintaining documented handling and destruction records
- A practical option for both small batches and large ICT asset clear-outs
How the off-site process works
2. Collect the assets
Approved data-bearing ICT equipment is collected and transferred to the processing facility under documented handover.
3. Receive and destroy
The incoming batch is checked against the agreed scope and the approved media is physically destroyed.
4. Issue the records
You receive the certificate of destruction plus the project records showing what was received, processed and any exceptions.
What We Destroy
Hard Disk Drives
HDDs from desktops, laptops, servers and storage equipment.
Solid State Drives
SSDs and other flash-based storage requiring physical destruction.
Servers & Storage
Data-bearing media from enterprise servers, arrays and storage hardware.
Backup Media
Backup tapes, optical media and other archived storage formats.
USB & Portable Media
Portable storage devices that may contain business or personal information.
Other Digital Media
Other approved data-bearing ICT media requiring secure destruction.
Check value before destroying reusable equipment
Some retired ICT assets may still hold residual value. Enter device models and quantities into our online estimator to get a fast indicative value before deciding what should be sold, recycled or destroyed.
Need destruction before the assets leave your premises?
On-site destruction is the better fit where policy, audit requirements or data sensitivity mean custody should remain with your organisation until physical destruction is completed.

Project evidence
See the destruction records your project can produce.
A certificate of destruction can be supported by device serial numbers, custody records, a comparison against the original device list and any recorded exceptions.
- Certificate of destruction
- Released device list and serial number recording
- Completed destruction matched to the original device list
- Exceptions and final destruction summary
