The service switchboard

Four clear starting points.

You do not need to design the full process before contacting us. Start with the requirement that matters most; the remaining stages can be agreed around it.

ROUTE 01

IT Asset Collection

For office refreshes, equipment clear-outs, staff returns and mixed business IT. Collection planning considers quantity, location, access, equipment type, value and reporting needs.

Evidence matched to the project

Choose clarity, not unnecessary complexity.

The same service can require very different records. Select a typical project type to see how the evidence can change.

ROUTINE RETIREMENT · DOCUMENTED PROCESSING

Clear completion evidence for routine business IT.

For planned collections where equipment must be identified, processed securely and supported by practical completion documentation.

Assets identified to scopeSerial numbers recorded as agreedSelected processing methodCertificate of Data DestructionWaste documentation where applicableFinal reuse or recycling route
Final outputs are agreed before work begins so the project receives the evidence it actually needs.
AUDITED PROJECT · ENHANCED EVIDENCE

Deeper visibility for higher-assurance work.

For regulated, sensitive or higher-risk projects requiring stronger chain-of-custody records and clearer device-level processing evidence.

Full asset auditSerial-number registerChain-of-custody recordsDevice-level erasure output where supportedDegauss or destruction-point recordsTailored completion report
The exact audit depth depends on the media, method, software support and agreed project requirements.
ONSITE REQUIREMENT · CONTROLLED RELEASE

Processing completed before media leaves your site.

For projects where storage media must remain at the premises until the agreed sanitisation or physical-destruction step is complete.

Onsite access, equipment, power, working space, witnessing and reporting are confirmed during planning.

Designed for organisations

A practical route for business equipment.

Bioteknik supports organisations across London, Kent and the South East, from routine IT refreshes to higher-assurance projects.

01 · BUSINESS ONLY

Planned organisational collections

This service is designed for businesses, councils, schools, healthcare, professional services, IT departments and other organisations—not household clearances.

02 · SCOPE FIRST

Costs confirmed before booking

Location, quantity, equipment, access, reusable value and evidence requirements determine the most practical route and whether charges apply.

03 · PREPARE EARLY

Remove management restrictions

MDM, Autopilot, Apple, Google, Knox, BIOS and activation restrictions should be removed before collection wherever possible to prevent avoidable delays.

Tell us the equipment. We will help define the route.

Send the approximate quantity, equipment type, collection location and any data-destruction or reporting requirement.

A small trust layer — with the detail available when you need it.
