IT Asset Disposition
Our BBB, ISO 9001, ISO 14001 & ISO 45001 Certification promises the quality. Many vendors treat IT hardware returns as individual & disjointed transactions. It is the vendor’s responsibility to shorten the link from return origination to ultimate disposal, re-deployment or re-sale. Typical activities include collection of used, damaged, old, unwanted or outdated hardware, obsolete equipment disposition and asset recovery
Once a product has been collected, there are many disposal options from which to choose. If the product has not been used it may be resold to a new customer, or it may be disposed through proper channel. If it is not of sufficient quality to be sold through either of these options, then it is recycled in environmental friendly manner. eRecyc has developed a coherent and consistent process for assisting clients with their IT hardware disposal challenges. We look forward to developing a reverse logistics solution tailored to your unique requirements.
