Are electronics hazardous to just throw a way?

How much will it cost?
We do charge a small fee to recycle your obsolete electronics. We offer various levels of service and pricing to our customers. We can accommodate customers who have the ability to deliver their old equipment to us, but can also arrange to pick-up from your location.
What about the sensitive information on my hard drive?
Hard drives can be physically destroyed as part of our recycling process or scrubbed clean using software that conforms to US Department of Defense cleaning standard DoD 5220.22-m. EOLE can provide its customers with a detailed Certificate of Data Destruction to ensure you that your data has been permanently eliminated.

How do I know the data on my computer is completely erased?
We use the data erasure standard used by The Department of Defense to sanitize your drives - permanently erasing system files, programs files, viruses, and all of your data. It also safeguards your software licensing agreements.
Why is storing obsolete equipment considered an expensive time bomb?
Storage can cost you in square footage costs, labor costs, property taxes, licensed software liabilities and, perhaps most expensive of all, by letting your equipment sit exposed to sly data thieves.
Is my charitable donation exposing my company to data liability?
Possibly. Are you totally erasing your hard drives in compliance with regulations before donating your old equipment? If not, your big-hearted drop-off of old equipment at your favorite charity might backfire and become a big, expensive (and even embarrassing!) headache.
How do I know EPA regulations are being properly followed?
TechRemoval provides complete documentation of the effective and proper disposal of your end-of-life assets, mitigating your risks by meeting all EPA, SOX404, and HIPPA requirements - whether yours is a government enterprise or a small chain of stores.
Why should I care who works for my retirement solution provider?
You should care a lot because you never know who is really working for whom unless you ask and check. We do. All TechRemoval's employees - technicians, operatives, laborers, office managers and clerical support - undergo background screening and drug tests before hire. We never use prison labor.
How secure is the facility where my technology is retired?
TechRemoval operates in a state-of-the-art ISO compliant facility in Arizona, and Ohio. It is monitored 24/7/365 by Guardian Security and multiple internal cameras surveying the auditing facility.
Is my equipment secure in transit?
Yes, we make sure it "gone for good" in a variety of ways. The load is boxed or palletized, sealed or shrink-wrapped, loaded and padlocked during shipment. If you prefer, we use a numbered seal to seal off your shipment as further security against tampering, and a "stealth cleaner" can be loaded on all drives before they are shipped to us by certified transporters.
