The process irrecoverably destroys all the data bearing drives removed from desktops, laptops, servers, and other equipment. To make the whole destruction process transparent, no devices are removed from site and the data bearing drive is shredded into fragments in front of the customer. This eliminates any possibility of data leakage and keeps you fully GDPR compliant.

Witnessed hard drive count and documenting
We will arrive onsite at the arranged date and time. The shredding process begins with a witnessed device count. The hard drives are counted and verified with the customer and a Device Count Document (DCD) is signed by both the customer and the WEEE-RecycleIT shredder operative. A copy is given to the customer and WEEE-RecycleIT retain a duplicate. If documented serial number scanning has been requested, then this will be done prior to shredding.

Shredding the hard drives
Once all the paperwork is complete, the operator puts the drives into the shredding machine. This machine will shred all drives to fragments in seconds. We never take any hard drives off site and destroy at a later date where you the customer can’t witness its destruction. While the shredding vehicle is on the customers premises it can be inspected at any time to ensure all drives have been shred.
