Collections

We can arrange a collection form anywhere in the South but will ask for a contribution towards transportation costs for locations outside of Hampshire. If you would like to arrange a collection now please fill out our contact form

Tax Relief

Your business can get tax relief if it makes a gift of equipment or trading stock to a charity or Community Amateur Sports Club (CASC). By using Jamie's for your IT disposal you will be able to reduce the taxable profits your business makes by the value of the IT equipment donated, because we are a charity. Using Jamie's Computers means you'll pay less tax. This applies whether you're in business as a sole trader, a partnership or a company.

Businesses can potentially offset the value of any equipment they donate to charity against their corporation tax for the year

Data Destruction

All hard-drives received are wiped using Tabernus software which guarantees the unrecoverable removal of 100% of data. This service is free of charge. Data destruction offers advantages over physical destruction as it allows a device that’s safe for second life, applications such as donations, redeployment or even sale. Hard-drives that are faulty or cannot be wiped of data are destroyed.

Tabernus is widely accepted as the industry-leading data destruction software. It was the first software to receive CESG-certification to InfoSec 5 standard and meets all recognised international data destruction standards, including those set by the UK’s Communications Electronics Security Group (CESG) and the US Department of Defence.
