There are many things to consider when we are about to get rid of our old IT equipment such as privacy, money, the environment, and time. Gadgets lose value quickly because of the continuous release of new devices. Depreciation rates vary from gadget to gadget, but it is better to dispose of them when they are still functional so you can recover some profit. There are hundreds of horror stories that demonstrate that improper disposal of old equipment englobes many risks. Data security is not the only concern because there are also many environmental worries about the spread of toxic materials in rivers, air, and land.

Disposing of equipment during these pandemic times means a real challenge because many companies are closed due to corona virus. Fortunately, several ITAD companies are there to pick your IT assets when scheduled. Their team of specialists will be able to do more than you ask for, such as wiping your data, commit to responsible e-waste recycling, and retrieving you the most profit.

If you are selling, recycling, or moving your IT assets, let me tell you that the most challenging part remains on how we will transport our 20 monitors or 15 laptops without damaging them. Even moving two laptops could be challenging since many people are still worried about the terrible pandemic situation that we continue facing.
