Waste Crime on the Increase

There is nothing sacred anymore, even your waste is a target for criminals.

According to the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) 90% of the world’s waste electronic and electrical equipment (WEEE), worth nearly US$19 billion (£12 billion), is illegally traded or dumped each year.

That is a staggering number, which basically means that you need to audit your recycling partner!

Do they, like Secure Data Recycling, breakdown the equipment here in the UK and reuse or recycle as much of the materials as possible or do they simply send it abroad?

We at Secure Data Recycling invite all our clients and future customers to come and visit our facilities and see how we process electrical and electronic waste here in the UK.
