Computer / Electronic Data Destruction FAQ’s

ShredAssured's mission is to eliminate the two major threats concerning the proper disposal of obsolete computers and electronics - Information Security and Environmental Compliance. Businesses and Organizations spend millions every year to insure they are destroying documents in compliance with FACTA, HIPAA, Sarbanes-Oxley, etc. However, they do not use the same caution in the proper disposal of the electronic equipment that produce and store these documents. According to government estimates, only 11% of the 315 million computers rendered obsolete by 2004 have been recycled in the U.S., and approximately 70% of the heavy metals (including lead, mercury and cadmium) that contaminate the nation's landfills are the result of discarding obsolete electronics.

What makes ShredAssured different than others in the recycling industry?

Historically electronics recyclers have been limited to de-manufacturing and extracting any valuable components, selling them overseas and tossing the remaining material in the dumpster. ShredAssured separates itself from the industry by offering our clientele absolute destruction of their confidential and critical data and environmental compliance by recycling the resulting material from our process.

How does it work?

Using specialized equipment, ShredAssured physically destroys the obsolete IT assets, rendering any data or information un-retrievable, and then separates the resulting material so that they can be recycled into future products. Destruction can be On-Site at your location or the materials may be collected by our specially trained security personnel and destroyed at our secured warehouse under strictly controlled conditions the day we pick them up. Security cameras monitor the entire process, and you are always welcome to come by and witness the destruction first hand. A drop-off service is also available. Every client receives a signed Certificate of Destruction for all materials processed.

What are the costs?

Our pricing structure is based on the amount of the material to be destroyed and the logistics of either destroying it on-site, off-site or having it dropped off. Additional costs may include extraction services from within a client's facility (unplugging CPUs, Monitors, Printers, removal of Hard Drives from Computer Towers, etc.) and specialized tracking and documentation, such as detailing serial numbers and asset tags.
