Recycling

Dell offers a comprehensive suite of recycling and asset recovery services to help organizations maximize their IT investments, minimize storage costs and recycle unwanted computer equipment securely and responsibly.

Dell’s fee-based service enables our organizational customers to retire used IT equipment of any brand.

Disposal
Complying with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines is important, but it’s not easy. Dell manages the environmental risks of disposal with a global Environmental Partner network that exceeds the standards covered in the EPA’s Responsble Recycling (R2) business practices. Dell Global Recycling Services provides the logistic and disposal capabilities to recover and dispose of owned or leased computer equipment in a manner that follows EPA guidelines. Learn more about our Disposal Services.

Data Security
To help protect the security of sensitive data, we perform a 3-pass data wipe in which the data is overwritten¹ by using an automated script or, in the case of non-functional hard drives, by shredding or otherwise destroying the hard drives in a controlled, secure environment.

Value Recovery
For Dell’s commercial customers worldwide, we will pick up your systems at your designated location, ship them to our facilities, cleanse the systems of all data and audit your equipment to determine the remaining value. We then help you resell it to a third party. Learn more about our Value Recovery Services.
