You may not have considered it yet, but your old technology actually can be a major risk for your business.

As long as the physical drives remain intact, the information in them can be retrieved. That’s why RAKI Electronics Recycling is here to help.

Did You Know?

  • In 2008, the EPA created “Responsible Recycling Practices for Use in Accredited Certifications Programs,” or simply R2 (“Responsible Recycling Certification”). It is similar to the e-Stewards certification, setting standards for e-waste recycling for companies, and continues to become more and more strict. Don’t risk getting a fine. Contact RAKI to learn more...
  • R2 certified e-waste disposal companies, such as RAKI, follow rigorous standards and make continuous investments in best-practices to mitigate dangers to human health and the environmental impact that can happen when e-waste is improperly disposed of. Only consider working with certified e-waste recyclers, to ensure that all electronics are disposed of sustainably and securely. Help the environment and mitigate the risk of data breach. Learn more…
  • When you recycle end-of-life electronics, valuable resources are able to re-enter the production cycle instead of simply being dumped in landfills. Certified green, sustainable business practices is a major appeal for many of our customers. Learn more...
  • According to the UN, in 2012, an estimated 56.56 million tonnes of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) were put on the global market, with the vast majority of that ending up in landfills (only 12.5% of e-waste is currently recycled).
  • On average, it takes 530 pounds of fossil fuel, 48 pounds of chemicals, and 1.5 tons of water to manufacture one computer and monitor.
  • E-waste recycling is affordable (you can even make money, by receiving some of the value of your old electronics back, when you work with RAKI, and we do all the work!). We provide businesses with an alternative solution than items ending up in landfills or inadvertently having your electronics being illegally shipped to foreign countries with weaker environmental regulations. When that happens, we all lose out in the long-run. There are better ways to manage our e-waste. Work with RAKI to have the best e-waste removal and secure hard-drive destruction practices implemented for all your old electronics.

Create a Data Deletion Plan

Before you begin your data destruction process, it’s important to create a “sanitization plan” to ensure nothing is missed. Here are some things to think about before you begin:

  • Do you plan on reusing the data storage device?
  • Have you backed up/transferred all the data you plan to keep?
  • Do I need sanitization or complete physical destruction?

The 4 Key Aspects of of Secure Data Destruction

In order to ensure we’ve covered all the basis of data eradication, we’ve developed a comprehensive data destruction process to ensure optimal levels of security and accountability:

Erasure & Sanitization

We hold ourselves to the highest standards to ensure our clients’ protection. When you choose us for your secure data deletion services, we will sanitize your data-containing devices to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-88 and Department of Defense (DoD) 5220.22-M data erasure standards.

Secure Data Destruction

At RAKI Electronics Recycling, we’ve made it our mission to give you complete peace of mind when it comes to end-of-life solutions for your old electronics. In order to achieve that goal, we offer thorough data sanitization services, so you can rest assured that your company’s private assets are protected.

To make things even easier, you have the option of completing your data erasure service on-site at your data center or by shipping your equipment to our certified facility. Either way, you can be sure that your drives will be wiped clean and your data will be protected.

Physical Destruction of Hard Drives

If your data containing devices are inaccessible, we will make sure they are physically destroyed. At our e-waste recycling center, we utilize an industrial hard drive shredding machine with the capability of shredding 500 drives per hour. So, no matter how many pieces of equipment that need to be destroyed, you can be confident we can accommodate all your needs. We are also happy to perform this service upon request.

However, if you’d like us to do the job on-site at your location, we have a mobile shredder that is completely capable of handling any hard drive shredding needs you may have.

Detailed Asset Reporting

When your data is destroyed, you want proof that it’s gone for good. That’s why our team takes asset accountability seriously and that’s why we create detailed inventory reports on all the assets received. At your request, we can include manufacturer, model, serial number, or whatever you’d like in our reporting. After your data has been erased or your hard drives destroyed, we’ll issue a Certificate of Data Destruction, so you’ll have proof for your records.
