Data Security & Destruction Services
Your Data Ends Here. Guaranteed.
We provide military-grade data destruction for businesses, healthcare providers, and government agencies.
🔒 The Security First Approach
For modern businesses, an old hard drive isn't just scrap metal—it is a liability. A single data breach from a discarded device can cost millions in fines and reputation damage.
At Recycle IT USA Toledo, we don't just "recycle" computers; we sanitize them. We treat every device entering our facility as if it contains sensitive data, maintaining a secure chain of custody from your loading dock to our destruction lab.
🛡️ Compliance & Standards
We take the guesswork out of regulatory compliance. Our processes are designed to meet the strict requirements of:
HIPAA (Healthcare & Patient Records)
FACTA (Consumer Credit Information)
GLBA (Financial Institutions)
SOX (Corporate Financial Records)
FERPA (Student Education Records)
Upon request, we provide a Certificate of Destruction for your records, certifying that all digital media has been irretrievably destroyed.
⚙️ Our Destruction Methods
We utilize a two-tier approach to ensure data is completely unrecoverable.
1. Logical Sanitization (NIST 800-88) For assets that can be refurbished, we use industry-standard software to overwrite data across the entire drive. This method—defined by the National Institute of Standards and Technology—ensures data is unrecoverable while keeping the hardware usable for the circular economy.
2. Physical Destruction For drives that fail the wiping process, or for clients who require physical destruction, we utilize industrial shredders and crushers. The storage media is physically pulverized, making data recovery physically impossible.
🏠 Note for Residential Drop-Offs
While we apply strict security measures to all devices, we understand that many residents prefer to wipe their own data before dropping off personal computers.
DIY Option: If you wish to wipe your own drive at home, free tools like DBAN or KillDisk are available online.
Our Promise: Regardless of whether you wipe it or not, our team will sanitize or destroy the drive upon arrival at our facility.
