Waste Computer Recycling in Hackney- Secure PC Disposal

Hackney, London Borough of Hackney

The introduction of Producer regulations, the landfill tax escalator and requirement to incorporate the waste hierarchy via segregation and sorting prior to disposal, all aim to incentivise businesses into developing recycling schemes for various waste streams. However, the introduction of the WEEE directive (a producer regulation itself) has lead to a separate, specialist waste management division, derived from the need to employ separate collection as a precursor to successful recovery of such wastes. The introduction of T11 exemptions offer a route to repair and refurbishment but full waste management, including treatment and hazardous waste disposal remains the preserve of Permitted or Authorised Treatment facilities. This, in conjunction with the need to consider data security, limits disposal routes for Businesses in Hackney that require the safe recycling of obsolete IT hardware.

 

Ping Wales, a permitted facility operator, offers a highly experienced and secure route for the treatment, final disposal of and re-use of waste computer equipment. It's skilled staff, each who have a decade of experience operating in the field of wastes management are Operator Competent Qualified Waste Management personnel (CIWM WAMITAB NVQ levels 2 and 4).

A Professional Recycling Service

We pride ourselves on being good at what we do and back this statement up with the qualifications and recognition we've gained through the course of doing business. We're also proactive in our business operations, issuing controlled waste transfer notes and whenever needed, Hazardous Waste Consignment notes. Where required, Part E consignee returns are issued to our clients within a few weeks of carrying out a contract.

 

We maintain qualifications for operating a Waste management Facility for WEEE and are audited regularly by the Environment Agency, thus ensuring continued compliance with Permitting regulations.

 

We adhere strictly to the goals set down in the Waste Framework Directive, which extends to the reduction of wastes sent to landfill. Whilst the WEEE directive extends to separate collection of whole units, it does not cover the disposal of treated equipment. Our service is designed around an ethos of re-use of materials through recovery, extending to the segregation of materials and further refining to extract precious metals.
