Digital Waste Tracking becomes mandatory · October 2026

The IT asset disposal platform that proves it.

Collect, wipe, certify, resell and report — one system. Every device gets a serial-level chain of custody and a one-click certificate, ready for Digital Waste Tracking. Live in days.

Built for UK ITAD & WEEE operators · UK/EU hosted · data isolated per operator

Why now

The paper Waste Transfer Note is dying.

DEFRA’s Digital Waste Tracking Service is mandatory for waste-receiving sites from October 2026 (carriers from 2027). It replaces paper WTNs — and it does not replace your WEEE or data-destruction duties. You need software that does all of it, together. That’s WipeTrail.

What’s inside

Everything an operator needs

Chain of custody

Every device gets a unique QR and a full event history — a continuous, tamper-evident trail from pickup to disposal.

One-click certificates

Data erasure, physical destruction, WEEE and reuse certificates, generated straight from operational data.

DWTS-ready records

Movement records structured for Digital Waste Tracking, alongside your WEEE and duty-of-care paperwork.

Client portal

Your business customers book collections, watch every device, and download certificates themselves, 24/7.

Refurb storefront

Turn recovered kit into revenue with a built-in shop, cart and order management.

Compliance & sustainability packs

Audit-ready packs plus CO₂, reuse and landfill-diverted reporting for your customers.

Stolen-device register

Every device gets a network identity. Flag a serial once, and any operator can check it at intake.

Operations console

Your team runs the whole workflow — intake, drivers, processing, products, orders — from one screen.

🔒

Your data, isolated

Each operator gets an isolated instance, UK/EU hosted. An on-prem edition keeps client data in your own building.

Why WipeTrail

Enterprise-grade proof. Small-operator price.

The big ITAD ERPs are powerful, pricey and slow to roll out. WipeTrail gives you the same proof and paperwork, live in days, for a price that fits a real operator — and adds a network the ERPs can’t.

Live in days

Your own instance, set up and switched on fast — not a six-month enterprise implementation.

Transparent pricing

No “contact us” black box. Clear tiers, no lead fees, cancel when you like.

A network, not an island

The cross-operator stolen-device register protects you and your customers — something a single-tenant ERP structurally can’t offer.

Frequently asked questions

Does WipeTrail handle Digital Waste Tracking?

It structures your device movements into DWTS-ready records and keeps them alongside your WEEE and data-destruction paperwork, so one system covers the whole compliance picture as the October 2026 mandate lands.

What certificates does it produce?

Data erasure, physical destruction, WEEE and reuse, generated per device from the operational record with a chain of custody behind each one.

Is my data secure and mine?

Each operator runs an isolated instance, UK/EU hosted, encrypted in transit and at rest. Your data is always yours and exportable, with an on-prem edition available.

How fast can we be live?

Days, not months. We stand up your instance, load your branding and settings, and switch it on.

What is the stolen-device register?

Every device gets a network identity across operators. If one is reported stolen it is flagged once, and any operator can check a serial at intake.
