The United States has a range of data protection laws that effect the disposal, recycling or resell of computers and computing equipment that either currently or in the past has contained certain types of information. Accountants, accounting firms and accountancy practices all handle incredibly sensitive data both in terms of business-critical information and sensitive personal data. Therefore, accountancy firms have a legal requirement to recycle their IT hardware correctly. Firstly, data storage systems (hard drives), laptops, servers, desktop and mobile computers must be assessed for digital data destruction (data wiping or shredding). This includes any remote servers that might be part of a cloud solution your accounting firm uses to backup its files and accounting work.

This ITAD programme accepts for disposal, resell and recycling all used, decommissioned, retired, broken and obsolete computers, servers, laptops, pc tablets, iPads, phones and network equipment that has been used in the aviation, aerospace and avionics industry. There are only a handful of ITAD companies in the world with as much experience, credibility and history in looking after the disposal of old aviation and aerospace IT computer equipment and infrastructure.

IT equipment financing and leasing companies can even include leading computer manufacturers and brands. Many computer-leasing businesses are global providers of information technology products. Their customers include the military, aerospace, automotive, transportation, telecommunications and medical industries to name but a few. Computer rental (short term hire or long-term leasing) can make a lot of sense both financially and in terms of getting the very latest tech in computing, display and networking equipment. Our ITAD company helps computer rental companies to refurbish, resell or recycle their used IT hardware as it approaches the end of its rental value.

Working with commercial real estate and facilities management companies can involve us doing everything from removing old WIFI and network installations to collecting abandoned office servers, computers, laptops, monitors and printers. We are often called upon by the Facilities Director or Building Maintenance Manager of leased offices to perform an ‘office IT cleanout’. Clearing out old computer equipment for businesses that have gone bankrupt or just ceased operations still requires a multitude of ITAD services which the cost of can more often than not be cancelled out by the refurbishment and resell of the IT equipment.

The U.S. is approaching nearly 3000 data centres, that’s more than any other country in the world. That’s why we’ve developed the ITAD ECO Plus data center service - designed to help: enterprise data centers, managed services data centers, colocation data centers, cloud data centers, edge data center and so on, to dispose of their infrastructure securely, ethically and in an environmentally safe manner. Much of the data center equipment such as storage systems; servers; network infrastructure, such as switches and routers and various information security elements, such as firewalls can be fully recycled or refurbished and redeployed. Recycling data center IT hardware ensures the toxic materials found in IT components do not end up polluting our environment. Furthermore, refurbishment and reusing old servers and network hardware can also help reduce the carbon footprint caused by I.T. hardware manufacturing.

Insurance companies are extremely heavy users of desktop computers, laptops, servers and other such IT hardware. For example, the top five US insurance companies; State Farm Group, Berkshire Hathaway Insurance, Progressive Insurance Group and the Allstate Insurance Group all between them have hundreds of thousands of IT users working for them. That’s a lot of computer e-waste to process year on year. To help, we offer a fully certified and data secure ITAD service for all US based insurance companies.

We have noticed more and more legal firms transitioning to Cloud technologies (Cloud migration). That said, many legal firms also run their own server rooms (local private data centers) to ensure digital data confidentiality. We have been providing ITAD services for legal firms since the 1990’s. Even just 20 years ago, most lawyers and attorneys used workstations which comprised of a desktop computer, monitor and keyboard connected to the legal firms LAN. Today, nearly every attorney works from a laptop that either docs into the office network or connects via the office WIFI. As a result of this shift in technology preference we are becoming more focused on providing legal firms with ITAD services that include the removal and destruction of data held on laptop hard drives. Whatever your legal firm ITAD needs are, we can help with everything from the removal and recycling of junk PC equipment to helping you withdraw replaced workstations, laptops, PC tablets, network equipment, servers and server racks and other such office IT hardware.

Providing IT support for administrative departments within hospitals and medical centers can be surprisingly demanding. The top 5 largest hospitals in the USA (The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Jackson Memorial Hospital, Indiana University Health Methodist Hospital, UPMC Presbyterian Advent Health Orlando and the New York-Presbyterian Hospital / Weill Cornell Medical Center) all employ thousands of administrators. Just the New York-Presbyterian's has close to 50,000 staff and affiliated physicians.

Pharmaceutical companies like Johnson & Johnson, Roche, Novartis, Merck, and AbbVie are considered to be the 3rd highest IT intensive businesses in the world. Put simply, the top 5 pharmaceutical businesses use more computer power between them than was used globally in the year 1995. IT and computer hardware used within pharmaceutical enterprises is usually replaced / refreshed every 3 to 4 years. The task of disposing of all those replaced pharmaceutical computer workstations, laptops and servers usually falls upon a Global CIO and their teams of IT directors, IT managers and network engineers. Once an inventory of the IT assets awaiting disposal has been created our ITAD team are then invited to take over the data destruction and IT recycling process. The ITAD process for pharmaceutical companies can take anywhere from 48hrs to weeks depending on hardware quantity, quality and data destruction requirements.

The top five largest Universities in the USA are Texas A&M University, University of Central Florida, Ohio State University, University of Florida and Florida International University. Between them they have over 300,000 enrolments. That’s a colossal number of students and a colossal requirement for administrational services. It is estimated that the number of workstations and servers alone used to manage the administration of schools, colleges and universities in the US exceeds 1,000,000. That’s an incredible amount of toxic e-waste waiting to be dumped when it comes time to dispose of those CPUs. That’s why we have developed the ITAD ECO Plus solution to help schools, colleges and universities recycle their administrational IT hardware and office computers.

In 2016 the INSIDER published an article about the oldest tech still used by the US government. They claimed the US government has some catching up to do in their technology departments. It was reported that in some cases the computer tech was more than 50 years old! This information came from the Government Accountability Office. Some might say at least the government is doing its bit to maximise use of their computer hardware, cutting back e-waste pollution and the carbon emissions caused by “modern-day” computer manufacturing. On a serious note, our governmental ITAD solution offers the national government, State authorities, the military and police a method of securely disposing of their retired computer systems in an ethical, socially responsible and environmentally friendly way. If you are responsible for the disposal of governmental, State, military or police computers and IT hardware call us today to find out how we can help your IT department with data destruction and recycling.
