Product destruction Melbourne jobs start with two things: which stock is going, and who signs it off.
The problem
Withdrawn stock may be off the shelves, but it's still your responsibility until it's gone. You need to know exactly which batches are going and who has approved it. Uniforms, returned electronics and recalled products can't all be handled the same way just because they sit in the same warehouse.
What Crex does
-
Tell us what's going. Send product descriptions, quantities, packaging and batch numbers. Flag any recall instructions or ownership limits.
-
Keep it separate. Pack the stock in agreed, sealed containers away from live stock. One person on your side signs off what's going.
-
We collect and destroy it. We check the containers against your list at pickup, then destroy the stock. You get written confirmation once the stock is destroyed.
What we take
What we handle
Product destruction Melbourne: what we take
Surplus, obsolete, recalled and branded stock, looked at by product type.
-
Branded merchandise and packaging with logos or printed branding.
-
Uniforms and branded garments, kept apart from usable stock.
-
Pharmaceutical, supplement and food recall stock, case by case.
-
Cartons or pallets in agreed containers, with counts sent first. No set minimum.
For uniforms, tell us the garment type, rough quantity and any logos or name badges. For recalled stock, send the batch details and recall instructions. See materials we work with for related streams.
What we don't handle
- Products we can't identify. A sealed carton still needs a description of what's inside.
- Liquids, aerosols, chemicals and pharmaceuticals. See dangerous goods.
- Ordinary mixed clothing outside a uniform or branded run.
- Data-bearing devices. Those go through e-waste collection with their own instructions.
Two ways to run it
Collect and destroy
We collect the stock from your site and destroy it. This suits most stock withdrawals.
Witnessed destruction
If your policy needs someone to watch, ask when you first enquire. It depends on the material, can take longer to schedule, and we confirm it in the quote.
Melbourne service areas
Across Melbourne, Victoria, we assess collections in Braeside, Moorabbin, Dandenong South, Clayton, Mulgrave, Bayswater, Laverton and Campbellfield. Include your suburb, loading route, induction requirements and preferred window in the scope request. Collection dates follow acceptance of the material and the access plan.
Our destruction guide explains how to get ready. We also have pages on obsolete stock, hard drives and computers.
