What is e E-waste disposal? The term e-Waste includes the following: desktop computers, cellular phones, faxes, copiers, printers, telecommunications equipment, monitors and any other device that contains electronic circuitry. These are machines with no resale value to which the EPA/DSTC treats as environmental pollutants. This is addressed in title 22 of the California code of regulations section 66273(www.dtsc.ca.gov).

We can physically remove the hard drive from the PC for the bank for $6. We can provide a DOD hard drive scrub for $3 per 10GB. This entails introducing a software agent to the Computer, which eliminates all data by right 0’s and 1’s on the hard drive 7 times.

What is Asset recovery? As the name implies it is the recovery of value. We deem this to mean recovery of the value of technology.
