We've recently been asked to dispose of end of life computers for a large organisation with head offices in Cheshire.

This is an example of forward thinking and corporate responsability, but the EC’s Waste Electronic and Electrical Equipment Directive (WEEE Directive) legislation will soon mean that disposing of Electrical equipment without addressing environmental issues will be illegal.

Axon IT Dispose of Old Computers and IT Equipment using environmentally friendly practices.  We also address data security - ensuring your data won't be available after your equipment has been recycled.
