Want to recycle mobile phones from your company? Make sure this is done in a responsible manner. Data that can be traced back to your company or employees must no longer be findable.
Our mobile phone recycling service is ready to assist you. We recycle business smartphones and mobile phones. Upon request, we also delete all data from your mobile phones and provide an official Weeelabex destruction certificate.
Responsible recycling and certified data destruction of mobile phones is extremely important. Business used smartphones are often given away or sold. This puts you as a company at enormous risk. Sensitive information simply ends up on the street. As a certified recycling company, we carefully remove company data and personal data from every old mobile phone. We can provide you with a report and destruction certificate. This ensures proper data deletion.
Delete data and phone recycling is important for:
Cell phone recycling is more common than you think. The average lifespan of a smartphone is two and a half years, according to the Consumers' Association. Business telephones often need to be replaced sooner. Due to the sensitive information contained on business mobile phones, we always recommend choosing professional recycling. You deliver the telephony devices to us or we will collect them from you at low transport costs. You will receive proof of return and, if desired, a data destruction declaration.
With our IT Recycling service we repair all kinds of ICT devices. And then offer them again on the market or donate them. Is repair no longer possible? We then take care of the disassembly for reuse of the raw materials.
As a company or organization, you can hand in your old mobile phones at our location (by appointment). But you can also have them picked up. We do this at a very competitive transport rate throughout the Netherlands. We work according to the Weeelabex guidelines and handle your data with care. We meet all quality requirements for the collection and recycling of electronics and telecom.
Recycling smartphones is free of charge. You can hand in old mobile company telephones to us. Would you prefer that we come pick them up? Make an appointment and we will often visit you within 10 working days. We charge low rates for destroying data such as company data or personal data. Request a quote without obligation for the collection of old mobile phones or the removal of information from smartphones/mobile phones.
responsible and certified recycling of mobile phones, smartphones, iPhones and cell phones
We recycle a smartphone by repairing it and selling it to entrepreneurs or consumers. Of course, after all data has been carefully deleted. If the mobile phone is unusable, we remove important raw materials from the device.
Recycling costs less energy than extracting new raw materials. In this way we reduce CO2 emissions together and work towards a sustainable world.
Old mobile phones contain metals that we reuse. It is true that an old telephone is still worth money, but for companies that value is often too low to cover the processing costs. We help you get rid of mobile phones, landline telephones, computers, laptops and other IT devices in an environmentally conscious and responsible manner. With large quantities, a residual value may arise that we will settle with you.
As a private individual, it is a nice gesture to donate an old mobile phone to a good cause. They can use this hard or organize a collection campaign. For business purposes, it is better to use a certified processor, because you are dealing with company data. E-Waste Nederland is happy to be the link between data destruction and donation.
There are several ways to get rid of an old mobile phone privately. Just throwing it away is a shame and also bad for the environment. Therefore, choose recycling, selling on a marketplace or donation. Private individuals can hand in their old mobile phone at the recycling center or waste disposal station. In some cases you can also hand this in at a telephone shop when purchasing a new iPhone, for example. Finally, a donation to a good cause such as Kika or Hulphond is of course a great way to contribute.
A mobile phone contains approximately 0.04 grams of gold. aDepending on the gold rate, this is between 0.25 and 0.35 cents per telephone. In addition, a mobile contains approx 0.16 grams of silver and 15 grams of copper. These are in the electrical circuits.
Yet the amount varies per type of smartphone. For example, very old mobile phones contain more precious metals. But mobile phones are being produced more and more sustainably, with the use of gold, among other things, reduced. So very large mountains of mobile phones have to be recycled to generate revenue.
You can have us delete data from smartphones. You can choose between wiping or shredding. But it is also possible to reset the phone to factory settings yourself. To do this, open the Settings app and look for the option Erase all content and settings. Always check whether the content has been deleted and the phone is no longer linked to a cloud environment.
