Secure and reliable disposal of redundant hardware
Leave the disposal and secure erasure of your redundant hardware to CTC. CTC is familiar with the market and specializes in Computer Recycling, secure data erasure and hard drive destruction. Furthermore, we have all the knowledge, resources and certifications needed to dispose of and recycle your IT equipment in accordance with the laws and regulations. And… with us, you also get an interesting residual value for your old hardware!
No nonsense, fast and effective
We remove and dispose of old IT equipment quickly and effectively.
CTC works with a streamlined ITAD procedure, in which every step is traceable. Moreover, you always receive clear reports and official certificates. Our own logistical service provides the transport, which is of course carried out safely and securely. A secure and fully provided ITAD process that takes everything off your hands!
Secure data erasure and destruction
Your written-off equipment contains much sensitive and confidential business information.
You don’t want that to fall into the wrong hands. Standard erasure procedures are not sufficient. As a Blancco Gold Partner, we specialize in the 100% secure erasure of data with Blancco software. Total destruction of data carriers is also possible, of course.
At our service center in Nieuwegein, or at your location. You always receive a certificate of destruction for audit purposes.
Sustainability and circular economy
We always dispose of your old IT equipment in an eco-friendly manner.
As far as possible, we re-use equipment. To that end, we work in accordance with the WEEELABEX guidelines of the Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment. If equipment is genuinely no longer serviceable, our certified recycling partners recover raw materials from the IT waste. On request, they will issue an environmental certificate showing what has been done with your equipment.
Is your old business IT equipment still worth money?
OUR CERTIFICATION GIVES YOU ADDITIONAL SECURITY:
“1,200 laptops safely and quickly taken out of Barcelona”
Residual value in the client’s account within 2 weeks of receiving instructions.For an Anglo-Dutch multinational company in the fields of foodstuffs, personal grooming and cleaning products, we have been quickly and securely disposing of all the IT assets throughout Europe and North America for 8 years already.
In total, that now comes to over 60,000 assets.
The challenge
It starts with an email: there are 1,200 used laptops in our Barcelona branch.Some are ours, and some are leased.They have to leave the premises as soon as possible.
The approach
Based on the email specification, we give a provisional valuation. Then we go to Barcelona as fast as possible. On site, we make an inventory of the assets. We determine which ones have to go back to the leasing company, and which ones we can sell. We issue a statement for these. We carefully pack the laptops and load them for transport. On arrival in the Netherlands, we assess the equipment for damage, securely erase the data with Blancco, ensure that the leased assets are returned to the leasing company, calculate the finalized value, and transfer the amount to the client.
The result
The surplus equipment has been removed within 5 days of receiving instructions. Within 2 weeks of receiving instructions, the residual value – minus the cost of the service provided – is in the client’s bank account.

Frequently asked questions about pickup service
Yes, CTC’s collection service is available throughout Europe. CTC collects your data carriers using its transportation, ensuring reliable and safe transport. After collection, your data carriers are wiped using the highly secure Blancco data erasure software or destroyed at our highly secured service center in Nieuwegein. This is the most cost-effective option. If desired, we can also come to your location to remove data or destroy data carriers.
Transporting hardware is a complex and hazardous task. Companies lacking the right expertise and resources can endanger their employees and the environment. Therefore, it’s prohibited for companies to transport hardware themselves. In the Netherlands, a NIWO license is mandatory for all companies wishing to transport hardware. This license ensures that these companies adhere to the required safety standards and follow the correct procedures to transport electronic equipment. Companies looking to transport hardware must therefore hire a transport company that has the appropriate licenses and expertise. CTC holds this NIWO license.
