Questions
Is pickup free?
Yes, for most business loads. Loads that are mostly junk may have a fee.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes. You get a data certificate listing every drive by serial number, plus a recycling certificate.
How soon can you pick up?
Usually within 1 to 2 days.
Do you pay for newer equipment?
It depends on age and condition. Ask us.
What happens to equipment that still works?
It's tested, wiped and refurbished for reuse. Everything else goes to a recycling partner.
How small a load will you take?
Small loads are welcome. Tell us what you have and we'll let you know.
For recyclers and partners
We work with recyclers, collection programs and junk removal companies. If you handle electronics and want reusable items like cameras, camcorders, handheld games and laptop chargers to go to reuse instead of the shredder, get in touch.
