ITAD is an acronym for ‘Information Technology Asset Disposition’ (also known as I.T. asset disposition though commonly mistaken as I.T. asset disposal). The term ITAD describes the combined methods for retiring IT hardware in an ethical and socially responsible (CSR) manner. The ITAD process ensures that a company disposing of its IT hardware (e.g.: via recycling, reselling or donating) has full legal indemnity in regard to the ewaste & data protection laws. Furthermore, the ITAD process is designed to minimize the costs of IT hardware disposal via value recovery programs. Listed below are a few commonly asked questions and answers relating to IT asset disposition:
All IT hardware from a company smartphone to cloud data storage will at some point need replacing. When the time comes to upgrade your organizations old IT hardware the question of disposal might pale into insignificance compared to the process of updating equipment. You could easily be excused for thinking most IT managers are more concerned with new technology rather than what to do with old technology. However, this is far from true, today’s IT managers are just as concerned about IT asset disposition as they are with IT asset requisition. From an ethical point of view there are many IT engineers, managers and directors that are growing increasingly concerned over the environmental, sustainability and privacy issues that arise from the disposal of computer electronics. Choosing an IT disposal company that provides ITAD compliance is one of the best ways to ensure your decommissioned IT hardware is recycled, resold or donated legally. YBC’s ITAD services goes two steps further than just covering the legal compliances. YBC also ensures a level of IT asset disposition that is environmentally friendly, ethically managed & socially responsible.

There are over 20 billion computers, laptops, servers, PC tablets and smartphones in use around the world. 20 billion IT assets equates to an unfathomable quantity of alloys, plastics, glass and inorganic compounds. This insatiable demand for IT electronics puts an incredible strain on the Earth. Natural environments are destroyed in search of minerals, people and communities are exploited and the balance of nature can be disrupted beyond repair. Thankfully IT asset disposition ensures an approach that provides sustainable advancements in information technology that irradicate environmental damage and exploitation. YBC is an environmentally friendly and socially responsible accredited ITAD business. When you choose to dispose of your old computers, servers, laptops, mobile devices and IT hardware with the YBC ITAD program you are choosing to have your IT assets recycled so they can be reused or their composite materials can be recovered for future manufacturing. To have your computer and IT assets disposed of using the most eco-friendly and socially responsible methods please call: v 908 431 0090 or Email Us.
Naturally there is a fiscal cost to recycling, reselling, donating and the data destruction processes of IT asset disposition. These costs are a result of logistics, warehousing, equipment and the labor required to collect, sort, store, recycle or refurbish, remarket, sell and ship used IT hardware. The YBC ITAD program aims to remove these costs where possible via recovering the value of a businesses decommissioned IT assets. Costs can be partially recovered through materials reclamation or by reselling used IT hardware that still hold a good market value. The YBC ITAD value recovery service is one of the most established in the ITAD industry. In many cases clients qualify for free IT asset disposition as a result of YBC being able to recuperate the costs of disposal and data destruction.

One of the most important aspects of IT asset disposition is the process of ensuring a client is protected against data breeches resulting from the incorrect disposal of retired computer hardware. Choosing not to wipe the memory of hard drives, flash drives, CD’s, DVD’s, digital tape, smartphones & computer tablets holding personal information (PII) can result in an organization being legally prosecuted. In fact, failing to dispose of IT hardware in compliance with data protection laws is considered to be such a serious crime that even the individuals responsible for their company’s IT hardware disposal can be prosecuted if found negligent. The YBC IT asset disposition data destruction service removes all liabilities from both the client as an organization and the individual responsible.

ITAD can be explained most easily as a series of 8 processes. The first of which starts with identifying the decommissioned IT assets in need of retrieval.

The very last process in IT asset disposition is certifying that the decommissioned IT hardware has been disposed of responsibly and legally. YBC is one of the few ITAD vendors in the USA capable of managing the entire process of IT asset disposition.

Whether disposing of 5 laptops or 500 computers each and every machine will need to be audited to prove compliance with both State & Federal ewaste and data protection laws. The audit process is very simple and really just starts with making a record of the IT hardware being collected. Once audited, the pick-up and removal team label each device with a tracking code. Further retrieval services might include palletization of the IT hardware, securing data sensitive or hi-value IT assets in locked rolling cages and even onsite data destruction if necessary. Once the IT assets have been removed, they are securely transported to the YBC ITAD facilities for inspection and sorting. The collection team will use the audit and tracking ID’s to double check they have retrieved all the IT hardware from the clients’ location. As the retired computer equipment is processed its ID tags are matched with serial numbers. This identification of serial numbers helps to ensure the accurate reporting of processes such as hard drive wiping, recycling, refurbishment & resale.

IT asset disposition refurbishment and remarketing are a commonly used set of terms describing the selling of used corporate IT hardware (e.g. used company laptops, servers, desktop computers, smartphones & mobile devices such as Tablet PCs). The refurbishment of IT assets might be as little as removing stickers and cleaning surfaces to installing new software (e.g. the latest version of Windows) and hardware such as motherboards, RAM, hard drives, graphic cards and so on. Refurbishment is usually done to increase the sales income as it allows YBC to remarket the description of IT hardware as ‘up-to-date’ and relevant. The term remarketing is used in the ITAD process to promote or advertise the IT assets for sale. For example, YBC would send a list of recently refurbished computers out to its many buyer groups. The list would include all relevant data such as operating systems, CPU’s, RAM and HDD size to justify the sales value. The buyers use this information to order the IT hardware most relevant to their sector. For more information, please call the YBC ITAD support team: v 908 431 0090 or Email Us for help.

Information technology asset disposition (ITAD) is at its very core designed to ensure the most responsible method of computer & IT hardware disposal. By far one of the most responsible methods of IT asset disposal is to have computers & IT hardware taken apart and separated into its materials to make recycling easier. This process is known as ‘demanufacturing’ and allows most of the alloys, metals, plastics and glass to be fully recycled. In fact, ITAD recycling can reclaim between 98% to 100% of the materials used in the manufacturing of computers & IT hardware. Furthermore, and equally impressive, materials such as aluminium can find their way back into manufacturing in as little as 6 weeks from being recycled. That means your old company computers for example, could well end up as new products in less than 2 months from being recycled. For more information about recycling your used computers and obsolete IT assets please call the YBC ITAD support team: v 908 431 0090 or Email Us.
At the very beginning of the ITAD process computers and IT hardware are audited, tagged and every interaction is recorded. At the end of the ITAD process a full report for each device is published and provided to the client in both hard copy and digital formats. These reports are stored on the YBC extranet and accessible to each client individually via the secure login feature of this website. Each report acts as a form of certification to prove that all IT assets were disposed of in accordance with both Federal and State regulations. The YBC ITAD service itself is also accredited and certified as a R2 responsible recycler, an ISO 180001 ITAD service provider, a State permitted IT hardware disposal facility and a Better Business Bureau Accredited corporation.
