The haunted IT closet: Where old laptops go to die

Every office has one.

That dark, forgotten corner of the building where unused laptops gather dust.

Once, they powered presentations, supported launches, and handled spreadsheets with pride. Now, they sit stacked on shelves, tangled in cables and cobwebs… a graveyard of forgotten tech.

Some are waiting for a repair that never came.
Some were replaced when their systems couldn’t keep up.
And some were simply… forgotten.

It’s the haunted IT closet… and in the corporate world, it’s one of the scariest sights of all.

Why this happens

When organisations own their IT equipment outright, they also inherit the burden of managing it: maintenance, repairs, upgrades, storage and secure disposal.

Over time, that ownership model leads to shelves of old devices, out of date hardware and lost productivity.

The power of a Refresh Cycle

There's a simple exorcism for this ghostly problem: a disciplined device refresh cycle. 

By refreshing your IT estate every three years, your teams stay equipped with the latest, most efficient technology, and you avoid the build-up of forgotten devices entirely.

Even better, you don't have to manage it alone.

We handle the refresh, take back the old hardware and securely wipe and refurbish the devices, giving them a second life in the circular economy.

That means fewer haunted shelves, less e-waste and a more sustainable approach overall.

From ownership to subscription

The real magic happens when organisations move from an ownership model to a subscription model. Instead of worrying about repairs, upgrades or disposal, your IT team can focus on deploying the right devices to the right people.

If something breaks, we can fix it.
If it's time for new devices, we handle the transition seamlessly.

Your business stays agile, your employees stay productive and your IT closet stays ghost-free :) 

This Halloween, don't fear the ghosts in your IT storage room. With a smart refresh strategy and a flexible subscription model, those forgotten devices can finally rest in peace, while your business moves forward, faster and lighter than ever.
