10 collections and 5 deliveries under the UniGreenScheme teams belt this week!

Local jobs in Crumlin and Blaenavon and cross country to Canterbury and Manchester the team had been super busy. Fantastic to see so much kit being given a second life as part of the circular economy!

Big job for the team today in Exeter removing a TEM microscope weighing approximately two tonnes from a basement lab!

But with a little forward planning with a specialist engineer employed to decommission the system beforehand, the right kit and some man power it was a breeze.

It’s now heading back to our Caerphilly site to be made available for re-use.

Prior to collection our engineer went to London to ensure this Confocal Microscope was taken apart correctly. He labelled all the wires and connections to make sure when it is brought back to site for listing and sold on it can be easily be tested and put back together.

Making the journey from surplus to re-use as simple as possible!

Our team have come up with some innovative solutions for some of the challenges we face when collecting surplus equipment.

Passenger lifts can sometimes be large enough for a pallet but too small to fit a pallet truck in too, like on a this recent collection in Edinburgh. Our team have build some pallet skates with heavy duty castors to allow for easy removal of equipment when a goods lift isn't available!

UniGreenScheme are out on the road today!

We are at Brunel University of London for their Technicians' Symposium! Please come and say hi to myself and Sian if you are attending.

We also did a convoy across the Prince of Wales Bridge this morning with our trusty blue truck, as our collection team head down to Canterbury to collect more surplus kit for re-use!
