IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) companies offer a range of services beyond just recycling, such as secure data destruction, data center decommissioning, and life cycle management of IT assets. They can help organizations alleviate internal pressures, reduce administration, and ensure legal compliance.
Decommissioning a data center can be very complex and overwhelming. When it’s time to get rid of all your IT equipment, it’s imperative to have a strategy in place for secure and timely disposal. This is where IT Asset Disposal (ITAD) comes into play.
The ITAD industry is expected to grow significantly in the coming years, driven by factors such as the migration to cloud computing, growth in big data analytics, and the increasing use of Internet of Things (IoT) devices.
IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) is a vital part of the IT industry. In order to maintain a competitive edge, organizations need to constantly update their IT devices and equipment. This means they frequently have obsolete or outdated technology on their hands.

IT asset recycling needs to be properly understood in order to make it easier to introduce to your organization as a “best practice.” IT asset management can be one of the most important parts of an organization’s overall strategy and provides up-to-date information to reduce risks and costs.
What if we said you might be sitting on value you don’t even know is there? Now what if we told you that there is value in the old IT Assets and Electronics sitting in your IT closet just waiting to be replaced or upgraded?
E-waste refers to electronic products that are unwanted, not working and nearing or at the end of their useful life, ie., computers, VCR’s, fax machines, IT servers and racks, and almost anything that has a battery or basic cord. Because many people don’t give much thought to where their e-waste goes, you might not know of any other way to dispose of it other than to simply throw it into the trash, which ultimately ends up in landfills – which is bad for the environment.
As Earth Day 2022 draws near, let’s take a closer look at how ITAD services can help organizations manage their e-waste correctly.
With millions of electronic devices reaching end of life every year, businesses inevitably question, what to do next? Knowing when to initiate a technology refresh, or finding the asset value recovery ‘sweet spot’, can be very perplexing. The make and model of the asset, market demand, and depreciation rate make a massive impact of determining when it’s best to retire asset and purchase new ones.
If you let cost and location overshadow other, more important, factors when selecting an ITAD partner, you could pay a high price in the long run. Inadequate sanitization, the accidental release of sensitive data, disappointing resale revenue, out-of-the-box solutions, and lack of transparency each outweighs the benefit of going with a quote that seems too good to be true.
As a tech-hungry nation gets ready to upgrade to the next generation of lightning-fast 5G devices, there is a surprising environmental cost to be reckoned with – a fresh mountain of obsolete gadgets.
