Certificate Of Recycling
With every pick up SHIFT Recycling provides you with a Certificate of Recycling that details exactly how many pounds of electronic waste you diverted from the landfill. Your certificate will come by mail approximately 1 week after your pick-up.
Your electronics may contain sensitive and proprietary information. To ensure this data is securely destroyed Shift can facilitate an onsite destruction service. Drives and other media are physically crushed in your office while you watch. These destroyed devices are then transported back to Shift's facility to be further shredded and melted down for recycling.
Any device that has had proprietary information saved on it should be physically destroyed. Here is a short list of some items that should be destroyed.
- Hard Drives
- Back Up Tapes
- CDs And DVDs
- USB Flash Drives
- Mobile Phones And Tablets
- Videotapes
Our trained technicians will catalogue the unique serial numbers on your devices prior to destruction. These are used to generate a Certificate of Destruction which is included with our destruction service. Below is a sample Certificate of Destruction Shift issues.
