What Makes Us Different?
Sensible Recycling brings a different approach to electronics recycling and computer disposal. We don’t charge for our recycling and computer disposal services, and we shred or physically destroy all of the hard drives we receive. We are not a scrap yard and do not collect scrap metal. We are also not a computer refurbisher, and do not wipe your hard drives and reuse the computers we receive. These two statements make us fundamentally different from our competitors for the following reasons:
- Your hard drives will always be physically destroyed. Since we do not refurbish computers, we have no need for the hard drives. Unlike a refubisher, we do not wipe and reuse any drives, nor do we sell them whole. Unlike a scrap yard, we do not buy and sell whole hard drives.
- Our means of data destruction is secure. If your hard drive winds up in a scrap yard, you will never know what happens to it. It could wind up anywhere and in the hands of anyone. If your hard drive goes to a computer refurbisher, chances are it will be wiped and reused. You will never know if your data has truly been destroyed because you will never see it once it leaves your possession. If a hard drive takes hours, or more than a day to be securely wiped by DOD methods and a business is receiving hundreds a day, how can you be sure some of these drives aren’t slipping through the cracks and not being wiped before being reused?
- Our shredding and crushing process is the most transparent, complete way to protect your data. When a drive is destroyed, the the pieces are something tangible and the destruction is so complete that it is readily apparent the data will be impossible to recover. We invite you to watch the process. We can even verify the destruction process with a serialized certificate of destruction and a video of the process showing your drive being fed into the shredder. The best part is we can do all of this at no charge!
- Need a Certificate of Destruction (CoD)? We can do that too. For audit purposes we can provide you a CoD with the make,model, serial number, and the asset tag. We can also provide you with a Certificate of Recycling for your material. This is all part of our free service.
- We recycle computers, stereos, printers and more. Yes all of these things can be taken to a scrap yard or computer refurbisher, but when your profit is derived from refurbished computers or scrap metal can you be sure that your electronics is being responsibly recycled? Sensible Recycling specializes in electronics and computer recycling. This is what we do and how we generate our income. Even stereos and printers help us pay the bills. Rest assured that your old electronics will be recycled responsibly.
What happens to the old computers and electronics?
Sensible Recycling does not refurbish computers and we are not a scrap metal yard. Sensible Recycling is an electronics recycling center that specializes in recycling electronics and computers, nothing else. We offer an environmentally safe way of computer disposal. This means that we want all your old electronics whether they are computers or not. Since our revenue is generated from recycling electronics and not from refurbishing computers, we can focus on the responsible recycling of everything we receive. All computers and electronics are broken down to the core components, sorted and recycled. If any computers we receive contain a hard drive, Sensible Recycling will physically destroy it to ensure our customers confidentiality.
