Our facility sits in Sowerby Bridge, a few miles from junction 24 of the M62 — which runs east to Hull and west to Manchester. Our own vehicles travel UK-wide; the only real question is whether a collection justifies the time and fuel.
Most IT disposal companies price collections on distance, because a van making a long round trip runs empty in one direction and that empty leg is dead cost. It is why suppliers apply distance surcharges, set minimum load sizes outside their home area, or simply decline jobs beyond a certain radius.
Our position is different, and it is worth explaining honestly because it directly affects what you pay.
Revolve funds free collections by refurbishing and remarketing equipment. A substantial share of that remarketing flows through a long-standing partner operation in North Lincolnshire. That means our vehicles run the M62 → M18 → M180 corridor on a regular schedule, carrying processed stock eastbound.
A vehicle heading east with stock has capacity coming back. Collections along that route fill a leg that would otherwise run empty — so the marginal cost of stopping for your equipment is small, and we can offer terms comparable to our home district well beyond the radius that would normally make sense.
The same motorway runs the other way, and we treat it the same way. Junction 24 is a few minutes from our gate, and Rochdale is closer to us than Leeds is. We run Rochdale and Manchester on a weekly scheduled route, and continue north up the M6 into Cumbria every fortnight — which is what makes collections viable in a county most suppliers decline outright.
The practical takeaway: distance is rarely the deciding factor — quantity is. A collection anywhere in the country works if the load justifies the time and fuel, and our own vehicles travel UK-wide on that basis. If your timing is flexible by a few days, say so when you book: aligning with a run we are already making is the easiest way to keep it free.
| Home district (0–10 miles) | Halifax, Huddersfield, Bradford and Calderdale. Short lead times, no minimum load, drop-offs welcome. |
|---|---|
| Core region (10–25 miles) | Leeds, Wakefield and the wider West Yorkshire conurbation. Regular scheduled runs. |
| M62 corridor east | Doncaster, Scunthorpe and Hull, via the M18 and M180. Served by our established eastbound stock route rather than dedicated trips. |
| M62 corridor west — weekly | Rochdale and Greater Manchester, on a weekly scheduled run. Rochdale is 12 miles from our gate, closer than Leeds. |
| Cumbria and the North West — fortnightly | Kendal, Penrith, Carlisle, the west coast and Barrow, up the M6 every two weeks. Worth booking a week or two ahead to catch the next run. |
| Rest of the UK mainland | Covered by our own vehicles, which travel nationally on a regular basis, with haulage available for larger loads. The test is whether the collection justifies the time and fuel — so quantity matters more than mileage. |

You are welcome to see the facility. A number of clients — particularly in regulated sectors — prefer to view where their equipment is processed before signing anything off, and we would far rather you did than take our word for it.
