Description

Rack servers, tower servers, and enterprise systems are accepted with secure data handling options.

Considerations before bringing it

Remove rails or accessories you need to keep. Let us know if you need certified destruction.

Data and privacy prep

Servers often contain multiple drives. Back up data, identify drives that need certificates, and ask about NIST 800-88 aligned sanitization or physical destruction.

Best way to bring it to us

Bring single servers carefully with help for lifting. For multiple servers, racks, or business refreshes, request a commercial pickup.

What happens after drop-off

Servers are logged, evaluated for reuse, stripped for data-bearing media, and processed for resale, parts, or recycling.
