Upgrading, moving, or closing a workspace often means taking old tech out of the picture. Our decommissioning services make that process simple and stress-free.
At Workspace AV, our engineers handle the safe removal of your AV and IT equipment with care and efficiency, so you can focus on what’s next without the disruption.
We handle the complete decommissioning of various workplace technologies, including:
1. Equipment collection: We begin by arranging the secure collection of your unwanted AV and IT equipment. Our professional logistics team ensures the safe transportation of all items to one of our secure processing facilities, maintaining full accountability at every step.
2. Secure data wiping: Protecting your sensitive data is our top priority. We use Blancco’s certified software to completely erase stored information, ensuring full compliance with GDPR and other data protection regulations. A data erasure certificate is provided for your records.
3. Recycling and second life AV initiative: We assess all collected equipment to determine its potential for refurbishment and reuse through our Second Life AV initiative. By repurposing technology, we help businesses reduce e-waste, extend product life cycles, and contribute to a sustainable circular economy.
4. Environmentally responsible disposal: For equipment that is no longer viable for reuse, we ensure responsible disposal in accordance with strict environmental guidelines. Our ethical recycling process maximises material recovery, helping to reduce landfill waste and minimise environmental impact.
Decommissioning isn’t just about taking equipment out of a room, it’s about doing it the right way. When businesses relocate, upgrade their tech, or close a workspace, professional decommissioning makes the transition smoother while keeping security and compliance in check.

The proper collection, treatment, and recycling of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) is essential for improving environmental management, supporting a circular economy, and enhancing resource efficiency.
For any equipment that can be repurposed, we issue a ‘Certificate of Re-Use’, confirming its successful integration into our Second Life AV initiative. Any equipment beyond repair is responsibly processed for WEEE recycling, ensuring it is disposed of in an eco-friendly and compliant manner.
It’s best to start discussions early, especially if you’re working to a relocation or dilapidation deadline. This allows time for surveys, scheduling, and coordination with other contractors.
Not at all. We support organisations of every size, from single-office sites to enterprise-level projects across multiple locations.
