Reduce. Reuse. Recover.

Strict No-Landfill Policy

IT Asset Disposition (ITAD)

OceanTech believes that reuse is the best form of recycling so our IT asset disposition services follow a strict “no-landfill” policy. We use best practices for environmentally responsible recycling, maximizing material recovery for reuse.

Our thoroughly secured facilities create a superior environment for our state-of-the-art data wiping and erasing process as well as the testing, evaluation, remarketing and shipment of electronics. Our wide network of remarketing channels and licensed recyclers, allows us to pay more for your retired assets while offering convenient, nationwide logistics support and arranging a full-service IT asset disposition package that meets your requirements.

Risk Mitigation

OceanTech provides superior expertise in mitigating our clients’ risk by eliminating environmental liabilities and ensuring complete data security. Our IT asset disposal procedures follow very strict processes to increase your level of security and lower any potential risk, nearly eliminating the possibility of a security breach.

As the top ITAD company, our process exceeds all local, federal and international standards and data destruction regulations. We comply with R2 standards for data security, which means that absolutely no data may leave our secure facility without first being overwritten, sanitized or physically destroyed.

At OceanTech, we utilize a patent-pending wiping solution that is consistent in all of our data sanitation and data destruction processes. OceanTech guarantees that sensitive data is non-recoverable. We are extremely confident in our guarantee – we regularly perform Quality Control checks by sending randomly selected equipment to OnTrack for expert recovery attempts and they have yet to recover any data on any device sent by us for testing..

For further protection of client privacy, we also remove any asset tags or proprietary labels on equipment.

Data Security

OceanTech has a strong commitment to the security of our clients’ confidential information. When data storage media is sold, transferred, or recycled, it is important to ensure that all data contained on these devices is eliminated. We offer a secure chain of custody for the transportation of equipment back to our facility, where certified data destruction is performed.

General Security

Compliant software-based data destruction is performed on all data containing devices using WipeOS. A report detailing equipment and/or storage (i.e. hard drive) information will NOT be provided, only a certificate of destruction (CoD). The CoD will include data destruction, regulatory and environmental compliance standards that are met for each ITAD project.

Data Sanitization

Data sanitization is performed on all data containing devices using WipeOS. A report will be produced after a project detailing each device make, model, serial number, storage (i.e. hard drive) serial number, and certificate of destruction (CoD). The CoD will include data destruction, regulatory and environmental compliance standards that are met for each project

Media Shredding

All hard drives and data containing media are physically destroyed. A report will be produced after a project detailing each device make, model, serial number, storage (i.e. hard drive) serial number, and certificate of destruction (CoD). The CoD will include data destruction, regulatory and environmental compliance standards that are met for each project.
