8 GOOD REASONS
WHY YOU SHOULD CHOOSE
BACK THRU THE FUTURE FOR YOUR COMPUTER RECYCLING NEEDS.
1. We provide environmental certification that is a legal compliance document in all 50 states. This is very unusual in the recycling industry.
2. We don't erase data on hard drives. We physically destroy hard drives by shredding them and then melting the fragments. This is the only 100% absolute method of destroying recorded data on hard drives. We can't see one good reason why you would want someone reusing your old hard drives. This is an all risk no reward proposition.
3. We track every item of equipment arriving at our facility by manufacturer, model, description, serial number and condition. We provide an excel spreadsheet to you, with all of this information plus what we did with the equipment. This report provides a detailed audit trail for regulatory compliance requirements.
4. We do not broker equipment. All down stream vendors are vetted and we know where your equipment goes. Asset recovery recyclers are brokers. They sell to the highest bidder and don't care where the equipment goes.
5. We are a national association for information destruction (naid) certified secure data destruction facility. Your data is destroyed within a locked down and monitored facility. Our data destruction certification meets with the vendor "due diligence" provisions of data privacy regulations. We were the first dedicated computer recycling facility with this certification.
6. We carry both professional liability insurance and our employees are bonded. We just don't say we are compliant we insure it. Ask your current vendor if they have this type of insurance.
7. We have over 18 years of computer recycling experience and are one of the oldest and largest computer recycling facilities on the east coast. We provide computer recycling and secure data destruction services to some of the largest pharmaceutical companies, medical centers and law firms in the country.
8. All compliance documentation and equipment databases are maintained in a secure web-based archive. You or anyone in your organization have access to this data when ever you need it.

STRONGEST
COMPLIANCE DOCUMENTATION IN THE INDUSTRY.
