BEFORE YOU RECYCLE
Choose the Right Data-Handling Option
Removing a hard drive or deleting files does not automatically provide documented data destruction. LAeCycle offers secure sanitization and physical destruction for eligible storage devices.
Organizations may also request serialized asset tracking, Certificates of Data Destruction and ITAD services as part of the approved project scope.
$15 per device or storage drive $12 each for 10 or more
