We make retiring technology verifiable
Enterprise Technology Recovery (ETR) is a Central Ohio company that handles the end of the IT lifecycle for organizations across the state and, through ship-in, across the country.
The gap we saw
Most organizations retire equipment in one of two ways: a large national vendor with minimums and a long sales process, or a hauler who takes everything and returns a one-line receipt. Neither works well for a 40-person firm with a closet of laptops, or for a district that needs serial-level records for its board.
ETR is built to close that gap: no minimum quantity, a request that takes two minutes, a quote within a business day, and reporting detailed enough to answer an auditor's question about any single device.
How we operate
- Name the method
- We say which NIST SP 800-88 technique we used on each drive, not just that the data is gone.
- Record the serial
- Every device and every drive, from intake to final disposition.
- Return the value
- Resale proceeds belong to the equipment owner, under terms agreed in writing.
- Show the paperwork first
- Our sample certificate is public, so you can check it before you send anything. View the sample certificate.
- Reuse before recycling
- A working laptop that is resold does more good than one that is shredded.
