What is eWaste?

E-waste is a popular, informal name for electronic products nearing the end of their "useful life" such as computers, televisions, VCRs, stereos, copiers, and fax machines are common electronic products. Many of these products can be reused, refurbished, or recycled.


Is e-waste regulated?

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency does not regulate eWaste management facilities. However, the EPA does require most organizations to implement a system in place to show proper handling and disposal of certain types of e-waste. It is important to regularly check and confirm compliance with all federal, state, and local regulations.


What type of IT equipment is eligible?

Alltech can dispose of any type IT equipment including desktop computer, notebooks, printers, monitors, routers/handlers, networking gear, imaging equipment, medical devices, copiers, and telephone systems. Our process is the same regardless of the type of equipment; we ensure that equipment is transported safely, tested, recycled, or resold in a professional and environmentally safe manner.


What do I do about data on my hard drives?

We use the same highly specialized process used by the Department of Defense wiping all available data from any memory storage device; if the device is inoperable or the process cannot be successfully verified, we physically destroy it and provide a Certificate of Destruction.
