Don't put sensitive data at risk
All devices will go through our certificated data-erasure process to permanently remove all data. Devices that are suitable for reuse will be refurbished and reloaded with a new operating system before being donated to schoolchildren, families and vulnerable members of the community by our redistribution partners. If we can't repair or upgrade your items for reuse, they'll be sent to one of our recycling partners who can extract raw materials for reuse in manufacture.

A Circular Economy for Electricals
Environmental sustainability and circular economy principles are central to Tech-Takeback, which means we are always looking for ways to extend the life of your business tech - whether that is within your own operations or within the community.
We offer 2 service options for businesses:
1. We erase all data from your tech before sending them for reuse by charities and digitally excluded members of the community.
2. We take your items for data erasure and return the devices directly back to you for reuse.

Why should you donate your business tech?
Many businesses choose to donate their IT assets to our charity and reuse partners. Not only does this benefit the local community, but it can also support your Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) activities.
