Old technology can provide financial relief to your organization — if you can find the time to deal with it. When old devices and other equipment have reached end-of-life, bypass the storage room and bring on a partner who can help reap maximum value from secure electronic recycling.
Sound strategies for tech sunsetting
The end of the story is at least as important as the rest, especially when it comes to reclaiming value from old computers and more. But many organizations delay recycling and reselling, using costly storage space and risking depreciation and theft.
Global Asset specializes in technology value recovery and secure, R2-certified eco-friendly disposal, with consignment and purchase programs tailored for your organization.
Comprehensive IT lifecycle services
Procurement
Work with Global Asset to build the right IT configuration.
Save your internal team the time and concern over moving equipment out of your facilities, so they can focus on other organizational priorities. We handle the secure transport of your equipment from your site to ours, ensuring safety and readiness for processing. In our secure 100,000-square-foot facility, all assets undergo a thorough audit, data destruction, and value assessment. Assets with storage media can either be destroyed or electronically erased, adhering to stringent U.S. Department of Defense standards. We can provide certificates of indemnification and data destruction.
End-of-life technology can still benefit an organization’s bottom line. Global Asset brings years of experience building connections to ensure the most beneficial recovery and recycling of used technology assets.
We maximize technology value recovery through our worldwide network of vendors and resellers while delivering on our zero-landfill environmental pledge. We are R2v3-certified throughout our processes.
