Those 200 laptops in your storeroom are worth money. And they’re a data breach waiting to happen.

Working business laptops three to five years old usually recover 10% to 25% of their original price. A ₹60,000 laptop at about three years old is typically worth around ₹15,000, and a ₹80,000 to ₹90,000 machine usually fetches ₹8,000 to ₹15,000 after three to five years. Quantity, model, condition and upkeep decide where in that range a lot falls.

You send photos and a rough list of the equipment. We visit to inspect it and survey the site, free of charge, whether you are a company or an individual. A written quotation follows within 1 to 2 working days of the inspection, and small lots are often priced on the spot.

Before. Once the price is agreed, the amount is credited to your account first. Pickup happens after the payment reaches you, so you never hand over equipment on a promise.

Within 1 to 3 working days of the agreed price, anywhere in India. The Form 6 e-waste manifest is signed at your premises before the vehicle leaves.

A business laptop that cost ₹80,000 to ₹90,000 new typically resells for ₹8,000 to ₹15,000 after three to five years, depending on condition, quantity and how well it was maintained. The same machine dead, locked or water-damaged is worth close to scrap. Value is driven by generation, processor, RAM, storage type, battery health, screen condition and lock status, which is why we assess device by device rather than quoting a per-kilogram rate. You receive an itemised breakdown showing how each number was reached, not a lump sum.

Yes. We perform onsite destruction at your premises with your security team present, and issue the certificates before we leave the building. This matters for banks, insurers and regulated firms whose information security policy forbids media leaving site. The alternative is offsite processing at our MPCB-authorised Waluj facility with the Certificate of Destruction returned to you. Both are available; you choose.

They prove different things and are constantly confused. A Certificate of Destruction proves the data on a device was destroyed, by which method, on what date, against which serial number. A Certificate of E-Waste Recycling proves the hardware itself was disposed of legally through an authorised channel under the E-Waste Rules 2022. A recycling certificate says nothing about your data. You should hold both, and any vendor who offers only one has not finished the job.

Yes. Condition changes the recoverable value, not whether we collect. Dead units, swollen batteries, water damage, missing drives and decade-old machines are all collected under the same documented process. This is a genuine difference from scrap buyers, who take what sells and leave what does not, which is exactly how storerooms end up holding dead equipment that still contains data-bearing drives.

Tell us at assessment. BIOS passwords, MDM enrolment and vendor locks all reduce resale value because the next owner cannot provision the device, so they affect the quotation. Where you can release the lock or unenrol the device from your MDM console before collection, the unit is worth materially more. Where you cannot, we still collect and still destroy the data: the value is simply lower.

They are dismantled and separated into material streams at our parent company's MPCB-authorised facility: ferrous and non-ferrous metals, circuit boards, plastics and cabling each routed to the correct downstream channel. Batteries and lamps are separated and handled under their own waste categories. You receive the Form 6 E-Waste Manifest at collection and the Certificate of E-Waste Recycling after processing.

Yes. We serve 497 cities across India. Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Thane and Pune are our regular-pickup markets with scheduled collection routes. Everywhere else in India, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Delhi NCR, Kolkata, Ahmedabad and beyond, we work on an assessment-and-quotation basis. The destruction process and the documentation are identical wherever we collect; only the scheduling differs, and we tell you honestly what the timeline looks like before you commit.

We reply within 1 to 2 working hours. In Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Thane and Pune the onsite assessment is usually arranged within 24 to 48 hours (other cities by appointment), the written quotation follows within 1 to 2 working days, and pickup happens within 1 to 3 working days of the agreed price. The Certificate of E-Waste Recycling follows within 7 working days of pickup. Larger multi-site programmes are phased around your deployment schedule.

You are. Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 the data fiduciary, the organisation that collected the personal data, remains accountable for it, and that accountability does not transfer to a disposal vendor along with the hardware. This is precisely why documentation matters: a Certificate of Destruction, with erasure reports for wiped drives, is the evidence that you discharged that duty.

Yes, and enterprise storage is among our higher-value categories. Rack servers, SAN and NAS arrays, Dell PowerScale and EMC Isilon, Hitachi VSP, tape libraries and LTO media are all handled. Storage systems carry far more data-bearing media than an asset register usually shows, so every drive is counted before removal and reconciled against the destruction record.
