Whether you run a small business with a handful of related technology or manage a large facility with a data center and extensive technology assets, your computers, tablets, servers, and other devices have a vital role—and limited lifespan—in your business.

Over time, hardware can become slow or even fail, and when your electronic equipment becomes outdated, that often means it’s time to replace. What do you do with the old, broke, or obsolete technology? 

Don’t let it take up valuable space—instead, reintroduce your old tech back into the manufacturing cycle with IT asset disposal from Lexington Computer Recycling, serving clients in Kentucky and across the US with electronics recycling and refurbishment.

What is ITAD?

ITAD, or IT asset disposition, is the responsible removal and reuse of obsolete data storage equipment, such as computers, servers, tablets, and smartphones.

Electronics you throw away become toxic e-waste; the United States creates 46 tons of e-waste annually. Most companies have set a budget for purchasing new IT equipment, but neglect to prepare for upgrades.

A comprehensive ITAD plan will save you time and money when you have equipment to get rid of.

Assessing Your Equipment for ITAD

Answer these questions when making a decision:

• Is your company suffering from lost productivity and team efficiency due to outdated items?
• Do your computers or laptops have slow processing speeds and crash frequently?
• Do you have damaged equipment that will cost more to repair than to replace?
• Is your equipment able to support the latest upgrades and software? 

The Importance of Reliable ITAD

Sometimes, outdated hardware can be a security issue. Data breaches can harm your company’s reputation and cause customers to question your professionalism. Improper handling of confidential data can also result in fines levied by compliance authorities. ITAD service from Lexington Computer Recycling offers hard drive shredding and is certified to guarantee the security of private information. 

IT products also contain toxic substances that cause significant damage to the environment and ecosystems if they seep into the soil and groundwater. ITAD is one system that ensures eco-friendly recycling and resue of your electronic equipment.
