Our IT Equipment Resale Process
Secure Collection
Security-vetted Astralis drivers collect equipment using our dedicated vehicles. Chain of custody begins at the moment of collection
Secure Collection
Data-bearing devices are sanitised using methods aligned with:
- NIST 800-88
- IEEE 2883
- Industry-recognised international standards
Where erasure cannot be confirmed, items are immediately removed from their host device and physically destroyed. An Exception Certificate records the action.
Booking-In & Asset Reconciliation
Security-vetted Astralis drivers collect equipment using our dedicated vehicles. Chain of custody begins at the moment of collection
WEEE-Compliant Processing
Reusable items undergo testing, grading and preparation for redeployment or resale. Non-functional assets are processed through approved downstream recycling routes
Reporting & Certification
You receive:
- Item-level Erasure Certificates or Destruction Certificates
- A Completed Collection Report within 20 working days
All reports are available via the client portal or delivered by email.
Value Return Through Secure IT Asset Resale
Alongside compliant disposal, Astralis helps organisations recover value from reusable IT equipment through controlled resale and redeployment pathways.
Our resale process includes:
- Testing and grading to assess the optimal resale route
- Market-aligned valuations based on global pricing intelligence
- Specialist resale channels for enterprise and data centre hardware
- Revenue share returned directly to your organisation
- Clear item-level reporting for full transparency
- Redeployment options for equipment that delivers more value reused than sold
This approach helps organisations:
- Offset disposal and logistics costs
- Generate returns from end-of-life IT
- Maximise the lifecycle of viable equipment
- Support sustainability targets through reuse before recycling
Astralis’ resale strategy always prioritises security and compliance first, ensuring value recovery never compromises data protection or governance standards.
