SocialBox.Biz, a leading Community Interest Company based in London, is urging UK businesses to make a long-term commitment to sustainable IT asset management. With their free tech assessment service, companies can prioritize reusing functional equipment before disposal, making a positive social impact while significantly reducing their environmental footprint.
After successful campaigns around Earth Day and International Day of Older Persons, SocialBox.Biz is reminding businesses that tech reuse should be a year-round effort, not just a one-time event. Their “Call SocialBox.Biz Before You Scrap It” campaign encourages organizations to rethink their approach to retiring laptops, MacBooks, and other IT hardware and to contact SocialBox.Biz before resorting to IT disposal recycling.
Integrating tech reuse with key annual events, SocialBox.Biz has created a calendar of impact to further encourage businesses to participate in their mission. These events include Earth Day, World Environment Day, International Day of Older Persons, and their Spring Cleaning Campaign throughout the year.
“By choosing reuse over recycling, businesses are not only diverting resources from landfills but also empowering individuals who are digitally excluded,” said Peter Paduh, Founder of SocialBox.Biz. “We want businesses to see their old tech as an opportunity for profound social and environmental good.”
Partnering with SocialBox.Biz not only benefits the environment and society, but it also helps businesses meet their impact and corporate social responsibility targets.
To participate, businesses can follow two simple steps: assess their tech and contact SocialBox.Biz for a free assessment. After determining which devices can be reused, SocialBox.Biz provides seamless collection and certified data-wiping to ensure compliance and peace of mind. Companies will also receive reports detailing the positive social and environmental outcomes of their donation.
