We conform to safety standards for controlled waste transfer
The disposal of UPS batteries is cost effective to a business and your old batteries could be hazardous and will need to be disposed of in the right way. This is where we come in. We make sure we are in line with the rigorous standards of legislation at every stage in the process to remove any health risks and take care when handling and transporting these waste batteries.

Environmentally-friendly recycling process
We take our health and safety duties very seriously and have obtained our Environmental Agency licence for waste disposal,  with all operatives duly trained in COSHH regulations.

Wherever you are located in the UK, you will find that our efficient system is simple and easy to use.   Once you have called us, we will arrange a site visit with one of our engineers who will discuss your requirements for clearance and safe disposal of your batteries.  We will supply you with our Method Statement and Risk Assessment.  These documents will ensure that you will meet all the safety and legal requirements in accordance with current legislation.
