IT Asset Disposition Services (ITAD)

What is Asset Disposition?

Asset disposition refers to the process of properly disposing of or recycling unwanted or obsolete equipment. Our team helps to streamline the asset disposition process, including pick-up and drop-off services, logistics planning, asset tracking, and data wiping.

The improper disposal of electronic waste into landfills is causing massive amounts of long-term damage to our local ecosystems. Recycling e-waste isn’t just about getting rid of old, damaged, or broken technology, it’s about building a healthier future for both our environment and the generations to come. By reducing e-waste through responsible recycling, we can minimize the harmful impact on the planet. When you deliver your tools to a recycler for either refurbishment or reuse, you are actively reducing landfill pollution, saving energy, and conserving resources.

Follow these guidelines and conditions for recycling your tools and used electronics to help us make a lasting impact on our community and environment.

What Tools Can Be Recycled?

At eCycle, our goal is to create the most significant positive impact on the community and environment through comprehensive recycling services. We provide recycling solutions for a wide range of tools and instruments of all brands, ensuring environmentally friendly and sustainable disposal options for as much e-waste as possible. Whether your tools are old, damaged, or completely nonfunctional, we can facilitate their reuse and reintegration into society. The types of tools and instruments we currently accept for refurbishment or recycling include:

  • Large/Table Top Tools: Routers, sanders, grinders, drill presses, table saws, compressors, jointers, etc.
  • Hand Tools: Pliers, multi-tools, hammers, screwdrivers, hand saws, planers, drivers, etc.
  • Portable Electronic Tools (Corded and Battery Operated): Power drills, electric screwdrivers, soldering irons, heat guns, etc.
  • Specialty Tools: Woodworking, masonry, plumbing, metalwork, hobbyist tools.

Unfortunately, we are unable to accept tools that are stationary or require any sort of fuel or combustion for power. If you are recycling heavy equipment or large volumes of tools, please contact us ahead of time to coordinate the transfer.

Tool Eligibility and Conditions

As an industry-leading electronic recycling company, one of our primary goals is to recycle and repurpose as much e-waste as our means will allow. This commitment leads us to accept many different kinds of tools and electronic instruments, regardless of their working condition.

If you have tools that are damaged or entirely broken, we will gladly take them. We recycle tools in any condition, even if they are no longer operational. Damaged tools can potentially be repaired or refurbished for reuse, and broken tools can still be salvaged for valuable parts and materials.

For safety purposes, please inform us if you have any tools that are damaged or broken to the point where they display signs of potential harm, such as sparks, smoke, short-circuiting, loose blades, or frayed cords.

How to Prepare Tools for Recycling

From electric screwdrivers to power tool battery recycling, following a specific procedure ensures the proper disposal of your electronic waste.

Cleaning

Before handing off your tools for recycling, please wipe down the items to ensure they are free of any hazardous substances or residue. This promotes safety throughout the handling process for both workers and the environment, preventing contamination.

Disassembly

If possible, safely disassemble tools before recycling. Although not mandatory, disassembling your tools and detaching any loose parts greatly assists in streamlining the recycling process. If you lack the technical knowledge or cannot safely disassemble your tools, don’t worry; our team will handle all necessary disassembly after processing your items.

Separating Materials

If you have disassembled your tools, please separate the plastic and metal components. This allows us to sort your electronic waste more efficiently and aids in the refurbishment or recycling process.

Removing Batteries

To prevent hazardous materials from causing environmental damage, we make every effort to recycle batteries safely. This involves ensuring that batteries are removed from electronic tools and handled with necessary care. Therefore, we ask that you remove batteries before recycling your tools. This also applies to rechargeable batteries for power tools. Once removed, please separate the batteries from the electric tools themselves. If you only have batteries and no tools to recycle, we can still assist you with proper e-waste disposal. You can recycle batteries at any of our five processing facilities.

Packaging

We recommend placing your tools in sturdy boxes to prevent damage during transport. Place parts, materials, components, and batteries into separate boxes. Labeling your boxes with the type of tool and its operational condition helps streamline the recycling or refurbishment process at our facilities.

Importance of Recycling Tools

The disposal of electronic waste is a pressing issue in our modern society. Technology is deeply integrated into our lives and constantly evolving. Every year, new upgrades lead to thousands of old, damaged, and non-operational electronics being dumped into landfills, oceans, and rivers. Unfortunately, electronics contain many substances toxic to the environment, such as mercury, lead, cadmium, beryllium, toner/ink, and leaded glass. These harmful substances seep into surrounding soil and water, causing contamination and lasting damage to local ecosystems.

By recycling your tools with an electronic recycling company, you help divert e-waste from landfills, contributing to reducing environmental harm. The refurbishment, recycling, and reuse processes for tools also consume less energy and produce fewer emissions compared to harvesting raw materials for manufacturing new tools.

Even if your tools are in poor condition or completely broken, they still offer value in their materials and components. Materials in electronic waste, such as plastic, gold, copper, aluminum, and other metals, can be salvaged and reused for producing new technology. This practice conserves natural resources, reduces the environmental strain of harvesting new materials, and promotes a sustainable circular economy for future generations.

Join us in making a positive impact on the environment by recycling your tools responsibly. Visit eCycle to learn more about our tool recycling services and how you can participate in sustainable waste management. Together, we can build a healthier, cleaner future for our planet.

Environmental Impact of eWaste

Improper disposal of electronic waste can lead to significant environmental harm. eCycle Solutions mitigates these impacts through responsible recycling practices

Electronic devices contain hazardous substances that can pollute soil and water if not properly handled. 

Recycling eWaste prevents these pollutants from harming the environment and conserves valuable materials. eCycle Solutions uses advanced techniques to extract and manage these substances safely, reducing pollution and supporting sustainable resource use.

Why It’s Important to Commit to Recycling eWaste

Committing to recycling electronic waste is really important for keeping our environment safe and protecting our health. 

Many electronic devices have dangerous materials like lead, mercury, cadmium, and flame retardants. If these aren’t disposed of correctly, they can leak into the ground and water, polluting our natural resources. This pollution can harm animals and plants, and even get into our food, which is bad for human health.

When we recycle electronic waste, we prevent harmful materials from damaging the environment. By making sure electronics are recycled responsibly, we can safely manage and get rid of these dangerous substances. This reduces pollution and keeps our communities safe.

Plus, recycling eWaste lets us reuse valuable materials like metals and plastics to make new things. This saves natural resources and cuts down on the energy needed for mining and manufacturing, which helps reduce greenhouse gases.

Recycling e-Waste is a big part of making our future more sustainable and healthier. When you choose to recycle your old electronics with eCycle Solutions, you’re helping to protect the environment and use resources wisely. 

Let’s all work together to make the world cleaner and safer for future generations.

The thousands of tonnes of electronic devices now in landfills, from batteries to computer monitors, contain hazardous materials and e-waste that damage the environment, highlighting the need for effective recycling systems.

To ensure your discarded electronic devices don’t end up in a landfill, our team will help you work out the logistics surrounding your recycling project. We are committed to providing efficient and environmentally friendly solutions for all your electronics recycling needs.

To start, we’ll pick up your old electronic devices, which will allow you to focus on pressing business matters rather than on driving to an e-waste drop-off site. We’ll then transport the materials to one of our five processing facilities across the country, and complete the following steps:

  • Catalogue, sort and weigh the items according to your specifications
  • Remove hazardous materials, including mercury and batteries
  • Send material to our shred line, where it will be shredded and sorted into various components such as plastic, metal and circuit boards
  • Provide you with a Certificate of Destruction for each load of items
  • Complete any special reports you require

Instead of arranging for pick up, you could drop off your obsolete electronic items at one of our facilities or at one the drop-off events we host at various locations.

Here are some of the devices we process:

  • Laptop and desktop computers
  • Cellphones and tablets
  • Servers
  • Network equipment
  • TVs and monitors
