Sales & Brokering

Keeping technology IN use and OUT of landfill.

Less waste.

Less pollution.

More value.

With the vast number of technical devices in circulation, waste is a major concern. That's why reselling and reusing previously unwanted devices is one of the most sustainable things we can do.

IT hardware doesn’t lose its value the moment it’s no longer needed by your business. With the right approach, surplus and end-of-life equipment can be securely resold, redeployed, or reused; turning a potential liability into a tangible return.

At Terraguard Technologies, we specialise in the secure sale and brokering of IT hardware, helping organisations recover value while ensuring data security and environmental responsibility are never compromised.

The Benefits of Hardware Sales & Brokering

A structured approach to selling surplus IT equipment delivers more than just a financial return:

 

  • Asset value recovery from redundant or decommissioned hardware

  • Reduced storage and disposal costs

  • Guaranteed data security before the equipment leaves your control

  • Improved sustainability outcomes through reuse and circular computing

  • Clear documentation for audits, compliance, and ESG reporting

 

Instead of writing off equipment as waste, we help you extend its useful life, safely and responsibly.

The Risks of Selling Hardware Improperly

Selling or donating IT equipment without the right controls in place can expose your organisation to serious risk. Common pitfalls include:

 

  • Residual data exposure from inadequately wiped devices

  • Loss of chain of custody, making incidents difficult to trace

  • Non-compliance with GDPR, WEEE, and environmental regulations

  • Reputational damage if devices resurface with recoverable data

 

Once hardware leaves your possession, responsibility doesn’t disappear. That’s why secure processes matter.

Our Sales & Brokering Process

Our process is designed to protect your data, your reputation, and your bottom line:

  • Asset Assessment & Valuation: We review your hardware to determine resale potential and market value.

  • Certified Data Destruction: All data-bearing devices are securely wiped or destroyed in line with recognised standards, with certification provided.

  • Secure Handling & Logistics: Equipment is collected, stored, and transported under controlled conditions.

  • Resale, Brokering or Redeployment: Hardware is sold through trusted channels or redeployed where appropriate to maximise value and reuse.

Why Terraguard?

We bridge the gap between security, sustainability, and commercial return. Our approach ensures your hardware is sold safely, your data is protected properly, and your organisation benefits from responsible technology reuse.
