Mobile phone recycling

by Mark Rowe

The South Yorkshire-based data destruction company S2S reports that it has passed the one million mark for recycling mobile phones since 2014. The S2S Mobile Solutions arm of the business is now adding £100 to mobile phone offers when a corporate customer books a WEEE collection at the same time.

The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) firm point out this new initiative is designed to provide an incentive to recycle more and deal with one supplier for IT and mobile phone recycling, resulting in less paperwork and hassle.

Sales Manager of S2S Mobile Solutions Tom Scott, pictured, said: “The deal includes our usual secure data erasure service and it’s a win-win for everyone. We have fewer collections, which saves fuel and the environment while the customer receives a financial bonus and we hope is encouraged to think more about the value of recycling.”

After testing of the mobile phones received at S2S £100 will be added to the final offer of the devices in question. Any IT equipment to be recycled must be ready for collection at the time of the offer, and a charge may apply for the collection. S2S Mobile Solutions says that it recycle corporate mobiles only and guarantee secure data erasure, along with certification – a vital concept for customers as data protection awareness grows.

IT recycling from S2S Lifecycle Solutions is a fully accredited service to ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 27001, as well as Safe Contractor approved and ADISA accredited. Again, secure data destruction is guaranteed, with the option of detailed inventory reporting, certification and recycling rates available. Tom Scott added: “Here at S2S, we’ve recycled thousands of products securely and see a high percentage of repeat custom demonstrating that S2S have the right approach when it comes to dealing with businesses secure data and product recycling.” Visit www.s2s-solutions.com.
