Come Recycle With Us

The disposal of electronics is the fastest-growing part of the world’s trash problem, with more than 100 million computers, monitors, and TV’s becoming obsolete annually. Every day, individuals and organizations around the globe dispose of mountains of Electronic Scrap, containing hazardous and toxic materials that pose significant environmental risks: CRT monitors with toxic lead oxide can leach into the ground water; PC-related components & batteries with chromium, nickel, zinc, mercury and other heavy metals; and plastic equipment housings that can release dangerous gases if incinerated.

Avoid Unnecessary Complications

Dumping your organization’s end-of-life equipment in the dumpster is simply not an option anymore. De-manufacturing and legitimate recycling, utilizing a certified electronics recycler is the only way to ensure compliance with the hundreds of state, federal, and global E-Scrap laws currently on the books. Federal legislation governing electronics recycling includes: the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), and Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA). These laws specify procedures and reporting requirements for any US organization that recycles as little as 220 pounds of E-Scrap per month. The penalties for improper recycling or inadequate reporting can be severe and can lead up to $32,500 per day.

Do It the Right Way

Alternatives like donation or employee purchase carry a very significant risk, because the liability for environmental hazards may fall back on the originating party with penalties applied against all involved parties, and sensitive information may be leaked as well. Partnering with an experienced electronics recycler like NSID Asset Recovery Solutions that is truly committed to proper procedures is the best and safest way to serve the public interest and protect your organization from state, federal and established International penalties, and keep your confidential information secure.

Because re-use is the most environmentally-friendly form of recycling, all equipment received by NSID Asset Recovery Solutions is audited by our trained technicians to discern remaining value for refurbishment or remarketing (unless client requests otherwise). If re-marketable value exists, NSID will purchase the equipment at Fair Market Value pricing.Following completion of each project, NSID Asset Recovery Solutions provides a Certificate of Recycling for the client’s indemnification against misuse of the equipment while in NSID’s possession, with hard copy of receiving report denoting each serialized asset handled. We make sure all your equipment is handled properly, and all your sensitive data is secure.

Data Destruction

NSID, provides a full suite of data destruction services including software based hard drive wiping, hard drive shredding, optical disk (CD, DVD, HD-DVD, Blu-Ray) media destruction, USB and flash media destruction, and factory reset processes for devices with embedded storage (tablets, phones, routers, printers).Upon receipt of your equipment, all assets bearing hard drives (PCs, laptops, servers, PDAs, etc) are locked down in a limited-access cage at one of NSID’s processing centers. At the customer’s option, hard drives are either sanitized via DOD-standards overwrite process or physically destroyed by shredding. Both processes follow NIST 800-88. Assets then enter the general population of equipment for diagnostic and audit testing, or disposal by legitimate recycling. All materials are re-manufactured in the United States and follow the BASEL Convention. Nothing is shipped overseas and nothing goes into a landfill as per NSID’s Zero Landfill Policy.

NSID uses proprietary data destruction software which overwrites all data three times or more (upon request) with a randomly generated series of 1s and Os. The process produces a tamper-proof, cryptographically-signed certificate of data destruction that identifies hard drives by serial number and is admissible in a court of law. In-operable or non-working hard drives are always physically destroyed by shredding and subsequently recycled.NSID, takes your data integrity, information security and potential exposure seriously. All of the showcased processes above demonstrate our commitment to ensuring your company’s reputation.
