How can we help you?

Protecting your data and our planet

National IT Disposal guarantees 100% destruction of your data. Whether you opt for physical shredding or government-approved software erasure, we ensure complete privacy and security with our certified methods. This completely safeguards you from fines incurred by data breaches.

We are here to help your organisation comply with the WEEE directive whilst enhancing sustainability and corporate social responsibility. A strict 0% landfill policy operates for all items that we process. The most sustainable method of recycling is sanitisation, refurbishment and remarketing. If this is not possible, we decommission equipment into raw materials that are processed for re-use in new products.
