With 25 years’ experience selling equipment on behalf of the NHS, HILDITCH GROUP has managed over 90 hospital site clearances. The company has a number of valuers who can provide accurate quotes on what equipment is worth before it is sent to auction, along with trained engineers who can inspect equipment and undertake data cleansing on hard drives, enabling resale instead of disposal.
Offering advice on site clearance, to prevent companies losing out on significant amounts of money, managing director, Mike Hilditch, comments: “Companies must be flexible – preparing for any eventuality and changing the plan if necessary, keep in mind the security of the old site, which can be overlooked when company focus is on the new site, and also recycling equipment which is essential.”
He adds: “Asset managers are essential for the initial site assessment; they can highlight liability issues and determine the real areas of value.”
