That box of old hard drives sitting in a school storage room isn't just obsolete equipment.
It could contain data.
And schools and universities may have more legacy technology and storage media than they realize - including:
• Hard drives and SSDs
• USB drives and memory cards
• CDs and DVDs
• Backup tapes
• DLT tapes
• Older computers and laptops
• Other devices that may contain stored information
Old doesn't mean empty.
Before equipment leaves your facility, make sure you know what's on it and how that information will be securely handled.
Data Recycling of New England provides secure data destruction and strict electronics recycling services to help organizations manage retired technology responsibly.

Old technology doesn't automatically mean useless technology.
When a school or university replaces computers, laptops, Chromebooks and other devices, the first question shouldn't always be:
“How do we recycle it?”
It should be:
“Can it still be used?”
Working equipment may have value through redeployment, reuse or remarketing. Equipment that has truly reached the end of its useful life can then move into the appropriate recycling process.
That's the thinking behind Data Recycling of New England's Reuse First approach.
We evaluate equipment for potential reuse or remarketing before sending non-reusable electronics into the recycling stream.

What happens to a school's old computers when they're retired?
The answer should include more than “take them away.”
Schools and universities may have student records, employee information, financial data, research information and other sensitive information stored on computers, laptops, hard drives, SSDs and other devices.
That's why secure data destruction needs to be part of the technology retirement process.
Data Recycling of New England provides secure data destruction, including hard-drive and SSD shredding, along with documentation to help organizations keep track of their equipment's final disposition.
Before your next technology refresh, have a plan for what's on those devices—not just where the devices are going.

Our fall electronics recycling schedule is live. We're partnering with schools, churches, civic groups, and municipalities across the region to host e-waste collection events over the next several months, with more dates being added regularly.

These events are also a fundraiser for the local nonprofit or organization hosting each one, so recycling your old electronics helps support them too.

It's Not Just Hard Drives-
When you hear data destruction, do you think only about old computers and hard drives?
Think again.
Businesses may still have sensitive information stored on:
CDs and DVDs • Floppy disks •DLT and other backup tapes •Microfiche
Hard drives and SSDs •Smartphones and tablets •USB and external drives
Some of these formats may seem like ancient history. But if they contain business, customer, employee or financial information, the age of the technology doesn't make the data less sensitive.
Before your next electronics cleanout, take a look beyond the computers.
What old electronic media is still sitting in your storage room?

When most people hear the words data destruction, they probably think about an old computer, laptop or hard drive. But businesses have been storing information electronically for decades – and […]
