IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) Services
Find secure and compliant ITAD providers that can destroy and recycle your electronic assets.
Environmentally Responsible IT Equipment Recycling & Destruction
IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) is the secure and responsible management of end-of-life IT equipment. From data destruction to recycling, our comprehensive ITAD service partners protect your sensitive information and minimize environmental impact. We offer a range of solutions tailored to meet your specific needs, ensuring a seamless and compliant process.
Professional ITAD is the most secure way to recycle and serialize retired IT equipment generated by your business. Instead of simply wiping a device and throwing it away in the landfill, consider a more environmentally friendly and privacy-centered approach. When electronics are put in landfills, harmful chemicals can leach into the soil or waterways. ITAD allows these devices to have a second life where they are repurposed securely. Unusable components are discarded according to relevant regulations while all others are recycled or reused.
These services securely delete the data stored on electronics before they are recycled or repurposed. Decommission electronics in a manner that protects company data when you use services from ShredTronics. Our team matches you with the most affordable service for your exact project in just minutes.
Service Options
Serialized Destruction & Recycling Services
Our secure partners are able to destroy a variety of different electronics through pulverization, crushing, or shredding. During this process, facilities track the serial number on each device and mark it destroyed once it goes through the process of destruction.
Secure Destruction & Recycling
Pick up services are highly secure and convenient for businesses of all sizes. A trusted service comes to you, collects your materials, and transports them to a secure local facility where they are completely destroyed. This service comes with a certificate of destruction but is not serialized.
Security and Compliance
Ensuring security and compliance in IT asset disposition is critical for businesses to safeguard sensitive data and adhere to regulations. Effective ITAD practices mitigate risks associated with data breaches and environmental harm. Businesses must implement robust data erasure techniques to eliminate traces of confidential information on retired devices. Compliance with regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, or local e-waste disposal laws demands meticulous documentation and adherence to industry standards throughout the disposal process.
Protecting your data is our top priority. Our rigorous data destruction processes and compliance with industry standards ensure the highest level of security. We are committed to safeguarding your sensitive information throughout the ITAD process. Partnering with ShredTronics certified ITAD partners who are equipped with stringent security protocols and environmental certifications is crucial for businesses to navigate the complex landscape of IT asset disposition responsibly.

IT Asset Lifecycle
The IT asset lifecycle allows businesses of all sizes to track various pieces of equipment from ideation to eventual disposal. IT asset lifecycle management is important because it effectively tracks devices throughout their time at a company. Ultimately, it streamlines the process of obtaining, caring for, and securely disposing of data and devices.
Planning: Determine what assets are needed for a given team. Launch a formal request to IT for an asset.
Approve: IT approves the request and either purchases the asset or commissions one that is already owned by the company. All assets should be carefully tracked by the team to ensure all devices are accounted for, returned at the right time, and in good condition.
Deploy: Provide the correct asset to the requested individual or team.
Monitor & Service: This may include tracking the use of an item to better anticipate needs. Throughout the lifespan of the equipment services, updates, and repairs may be necessary.
Retirement: Once an asset is no longer necessary or is broken, it requires secure disposal that is sensitive to the information that might still be tracible on it. This decommissioning of a device should be in accordance to relevant environmental and privacy regulations.
