History

Computer Crusher Recycling LLC offers a secure solution to computer electronic recycling. President and founder Brad Chism is a Business Computer Information Systems graduate of the University of North Texas in Denton Texas. The company was built on the premise that security is the number one priority when dealing with computer electronics.In 2006 Computer Crusher developed equipment that allowed us to physically destroy computer hard drives onsite for our customers. This new method allowed us to show our customers first hand that their data was actually being destroyed. Customers raved that their data was confidently handled before we even left their facility. NBC channel 5 news in Dallas/ Fort Worth filmed a segment for their “Going Green” series on our unique approach to computer recycling in the summer of 2007. Since then, various news media outlets including the Dallas Morning News have done follow up stories on our progress.

Chism founded the company believing that customers should not just be promised that their sensitive data will be destroyed offsite at another facility, but wanted them to see with their own eyes that it was being done properly. Computer Crusher uses no power or electricity to accomplish the data destruction. This means your data is not only securely destroyed on-site, but no energy is wasted as well. Forgoing the use of energy hungry wiping or degaussing techniques allows us to provide the most green method of data destruction possible.Chism, who at the age of 10 started a business recycling old newspapers from local neighborhoods, strives continuously to ensure that e-waste managed by Computer Crusher Recycling Company is handled in the most environmentally responsible manner. This environmental stewardship has allowed Computer Crusher to tout a proud zero landfill policy. Computer Crusher also partners with local entities to properly monitor downstream recycling. This allows us to ensure our downstream maintains the same strict standards as ourselves.

Through a new comprehensive inventory system our employees are now able to track, sort, and store materials processed by our facility. This attention to detail in item tracking allows you to know the exact materials that have left your facility.It is our goal to provide a secure and responsible outlet for the recycling of computer electronics for both businesses and residents.

Great Service Offered
After the EPA relaxed regulations on electronic waste to encourage recycling, this allowed us to take this waste out of a HAZ waste stream. We found Computer Crushers and it lowered our disposal costs 75%. When I request a pick-up they schedule it in a timely fashion, and they arrive at the appointed time. One important service they provide is the complete destruction of computer hard drives that even military encryption will not accomplish, and they provide a complete list of each hard drive serial number destroyed. They also destroy server back-up tapes which is also important to our company. Best of all is knowing that this waste stream is being properly disposed of.

Electronics Recycling
We take a 'Security comes first' approach to electronics recycling. We are proud to be one of the first pioneers to offer onsite physical data destruction. We also remove all asset tags and any identifying logos or names that might be associated with your equipment. We even erase BIOS info that is related to any company or individual. To ensure the most effective recycling processes are used we analyze all equipment that comes in our facility for either reuse or end of life destruction. Refurbishing and reuse is the most environmentally friendly approach to the electronic ewaste issue. However if the equipment has reached end of life then all dismantling of computer electronics is done by hand.

All equipment that comes into our facility is weighed, categorized and assigned a lot number. This lot ID tracks the equipment as it moves through our facility. Whether it’s dismantling end of life equipment or testing components for reuse; you can be assured that your equipment is handled securely and responsibly. We will also provide you with certificates of destruction and recycling for all equipment that we process upon request.

Data Destruction
At Computer Crusher Recycling we believe data destruction should come before electronics recycling. We can physically crush all of your computer hard drives onsite at your facility before we leave with your computers and other electronic equipment. All of the destruction is handled in our Crusher vehicles where you can witness the process. We can also provide tracking with a Certificate of Destruction which documents the destroyed media. When we leave your facility the data security issue is over. Would you expect anything less from a company named “Computer Crusher Recycling?”

Recycling Pickups
Whether your equipment is piled up in a storage room or palletized on your loading dock we make the collection process easy for you. Our staff will do all the heavy lifting, stacking, and loading of the equipment. A simple call or email can get your e-waste removal scheduled. Many times we can service our customers the same day. Whether it's recycling toner cartridges to removing heavy server racks we can save you from calling multiple companies to complete your project. Send us an email with a brief description of your equipment or call us today to get your collection scheduled.

Data Security: Physical Destruction Vs Wiping Drives
We are pioneers in providing onsite data destruction. Our clients’ hard drives can be physically destroyed through our specialized and certified hard drive disk crusher. We do this because we view your data as a LIABILITY rather than an asset. With the amount of compliance protected information on just one hard drive, we know that it is in our clients’ best interest to do our best in protecting their clients. We believe the paramount way to do this is through physical destruction. Not only can we save your information from getting into the wrong hands, but we can properly dispose of the parts to help keep our planet a little greener.
