We're based just over the border in Oswestry, so Shrewsbury is on our doorstep. If you've got old laptops, desktops, servers or phones sitting in a cupboard, we'll come and pick them up, wipe the drives, and pay you for what's worth something.
Shrewsbury splits in two for our purposes. Old town centre — Tudor frontages, narrow streets, listed buildings, parking is its own problem. Battlefield Enterprise Park north of town — modern offices, easy access, where most of the professional services have settled. Different rhythms, same job.
We collect across the town and surrounds. Most of the work happens at:
If you're inside the ring road or off the A49, we'll be there. If you're outside that, just say where, we'll work it out.
Shrewsbury's professional services scene is dense — accountants, solicitors, design agencies, engineers, architects, marketing firms. They cycle through laptops every three to four years and the old ones don't go anywhere. They sit in a cupboard near reception. Eventually somebody asks what to do with them.
That's where we come in. Most of our Shrewsbury jobs are batches of 5 to 30 devices: a few rounds of old laptops, a couple of desktops, sometimes a small server or a stack of phones. Nothing too big, nothing too small. We've yet to turn anything down.
National refurb companies want you to package the kit, label it, book a courier and wait. That's a half-day's work for whoever ends up with the job, on top of everything else. We just turn up.
From Oswestry to Shrewsbury is a twenty-minute run up the A5. We know the town, we know which estates have parking issues and which don't, and we plan visits so you're not waiting in for a half-day window. Pick a slot that suits, we're there when we say we'll be.
Travel is on us. The price you're quoted is the price you're paid.
Every drive that leaves with us is sanitised to NIST 800-88, the actual industry standard. You get a wipe certificate for every device, listing serial numbers and method, so if your auditor or DPO ever asks, the paper trail is on one page.
For the regulated industries we see most often in Shrewsbury (legal, accountancy, healthcare admin), the certificate is the part that actually matters. More on data security.
Once we've checked the kit matches what was described, we transfer the agreed amount on the spot. Receipt by email within 24 hours. No purchase orders, no 30-day invoices, no chase.
What we pay depends entirely on what you've got. Older office desktops with no SSD aren't worth much, modern ThinkPads with decent specs are worth a meaningful amount, and servers can be worth a surprising amount. Whatever it is, we'll be honest about the number and why.
The form is the easiest way. Bullet points are fine. A photo of the cupboard is even better. You don't need an asset register — model numbers and a rough count work, "5 or 6 old laptops, mix of Dells" works, even a one-line description works.
We'll come back inside a working day with an estimate, in writing. If it's a fit, we book a slot. If it isn't, no chase, just bin the email.
Even rough — we'll come back with a ballpark and a slot that fits.
