Disposal of electronic equipment, such as old computers, monitors and printers, is becoming a bigger problem every day. SARCOM can help you manage the end-of-life processes of your assets, whether you’re looking to resell, redeploy, dispose or recycle.
SARCOM can help you redeploy or dispose your equipment
Imagine that your company is about to embark on a large desktop refresh project. As you work through the details of procuring the equipment and scheduling the deployment, you start to think about what you’re going to do with all the existing equipment. Can some of the equipment be redeployed? Can it be sold? How and where will you dispose of the non-usable equipment? Are there federal, state and local laws concerning the disposal of electrical equipment? What can be recycled? How can you ensure that sensitive data is completely erased and destroyed?
SARCOM’s Disposal and Recycling Services
These and other questions demonstrate that equipment disposal is not something that can be done as an afterthought anymore. As part of our lifecycle services, SARCOM can manage all aspects of retiring your old IT equipment so that you are free to focus on activities more essential to your business.

Brokerage Solutions
SARCOM also offers brokerage solutions for assets that still have market value. As with equipment to be disposed and recycled, SARCOM will pick up all equipment at your locations. We perform a physical audit and do a market value assessment. Before any equipment is resold, our technicians will erase/overwrite the hard drives. The equipment will then be put up for bids and sold to the highest bidder. All residual value will be returned to you at 100%. To complete the transaction, a transfer of title will be provided.
