Here at EvTerra, we do more than data destruction and hardware recycling. We also offer ITAD asset management services so that you can be sure you’re using your current IT hardware in the most efficient ways. This lets you take a load off of an overburdened IT department so that your organization runs more smoothly.
As your company changes, various departments have evolving needs. These lead to some departments needing more IT assets, while others need different ones than they did before. Instead of buying new assets for the growing divisions and throwing away assets from divisions that have moved onto other systems, you can reassign your existing equipment. In many cases, the same assets that no longer serve one department will be great for another one.
Data security is an obvious concern when reassigning IT assets. However, with our ITAD asset management service, you don’t need to worry about that. We can destroy hard drives that contain sensitive information before passing the equipment on to its new assignee. This makes it so that you only need to buy new hard drives, rather than entirely new computers or other equipment.
Of course, there are circumstances in which it really is time to completely get rid of certain IT equipment. When that happens, our end-of-life recycling program will ensure that this equipment is disposed of properly.
When it’s time to decommission IT equipment, there are several options other than simply throwing it away. In fact, thanks to the presence of environmentally-hazardous metals and other components, dump disposal is a bad idea even if there is no sensitive information involved. Therefore, we offer several better choices:
Sending your obsolete, surplus, off-spec, or end-of-life equipment to a recycling facility is a great idea. However, figuring out how to get it there can be a problem. Large companies often have enough of this equipment to fill truckloads or at least pallets, yet aren’t set up to do their own transport.
Our reverse logistics program is set up to collect your items and take them to our own recycling facilities. You won’t have to lease trucks, hire drivers, or otherwise take on the challenges of running a logistics program. There will also be no need to deal with standard shipping companies, which are not set up to protect data security during transit or prior to recycling.
Our data security program ensures that no one can get to the information within your equipment and use it against you. Data will be protected during the trip to our facility, and then scrubbed before the equipment leaves our control.
Sometimes, your old equipment will be fine, but it will be a security risk to leave its current data in it. That’s where our data destruction service comes in. This allows you to repurpose old hardware without the fear of private information being seen by the wrong eyes. We can sanitize hard drives and other equipment using NIST 800-88 Rev.1 erasure methods or physically destroy the drives as your needs require.
Electronics equipment needs to be recycled instead of thrown away because it contains heavy metals and other substances that could otherwise contaminate the environment. Recycling also reduces the use of hard-to-get new materials, such as neodymium, and helps keep the costs of these materials under control.
The answer to this question is a profound “Yes!” for any business that utilizes technology to conduct business. There is so much information stored on your devices that getting rid of the information alone before your equipment gets new life is one of the most important things you can do to maintain trade secrets, customer confidentiality, privacy, and more.
Of course, any reverse logistics company won’t do. You need to work with an organization that has a reputation for excellence when it comes to managing e-waste and recycling electronics, like evTerra. evTerra manages nearly 200 million pounds of e-waste each year for carbon neutrality and zero waste. Recycling electronic waste can be challenging for consumers. Because of this, there are nearly 40 million tons of e-waste each year that are illegally discarded. evTerra makes it easier than ever for businesses to dispose of their electronic waste safely and without putting private information at risk of public consumption.
