Help Me Choose: Recycling

By purchasing Dell™ Asset Recovery, your old or used equipment is recycled or resold, which helps keep environmentally sensitive materials out of landfills; enables materials to be recycled or reused in a manner designed to meet local, state and federal requirements and guidelines; and helps conserve natural resources.

With a minimum number of assets for recovery, Dell will come to your site and pack equipment for a fully managed solution, relieving logistical concerns associated with equipment recycling and disposition.

Dell Asset Recovery reporting includes a detailed list of the hardware disposed of and a "Confirmation of Disposal." The data overwrite process uses an automated script to overwrite the hard drive.

Dell Asset Recovery offers programs for used computer hardware of any brand, including desktops, notebooks, servers, storage, networking, monitors, printers, projectors and computer peripherals such as keyboards and mice.

No data removal process leaves a hard drive or computer as free from residual data as a new product. Dell makes no recommendations regarding the customer's security needs or representations regarding the effectiveness of one method of data removal over another. It is the customer's responsibility to protect any confidential or sensitive information contained on hard drives recovered by Dell.
