Hire Professionals to Destroy Old Equipment

You have seen it before – the old copier sitting at the end of a long, dark, scary hallway. It served your office well for years through thousands of copies. But now, it sits next to the old fax machine, haunting the space with its presence. Getting rid of old office equipment can seem like a pain. Do you recycle? Do you throw it all in a dumpster? Or do you let it pile up in an unused storage room? You may want to donate some items such as softly used chairs or desks to a non-profit organization. Media, old computers, and hard drives are another story. These items have confidential information about your company and clients. Destroying these items is important to ensure that data is safe. You can choose to work with a company that also recycles any parts that can be recycled.
