Wiping Clean Your Data
Physical Hard Drive Destruction
Utilizing our own 4 ton hydraulic press machine we are capable of puncturing and physically destroying hard drives and their internal platters, making them impossible to reuse or recover their data. If more destruction is required we have hard drive shredding capabilities that will tear your data devices into many small pieces just like paper in a paper shredder.
Professional Data Wiping
We use advanced Department of Defense compliant software to wipe your data clean, by erasing, purging, and overwriting the drives multiple times, making the old data irrecoverable. Be advised that a drive must be functional in order to be “wiped”. Non-functional drives that can not be wiped will automatically be physically destroyed and degaussed. (fee may apply)
Hard Drive and Media Degaussing
Degaussing is the process of exposing magnetic storage media like hard drives and tapes to a powerful magnetic field. When exposed to the degausser’s industrial level magnetic field the data stored as magnetic 0’s and 1’s on a tape or hard disk is neutralized, and erased. Hard drives are no longer usable after going through the process of degaussing and need to be recycled as scrap. (fee may apply)
Hard Drive Shredding
Data destruction can require physical destruction of the hard drive. With the help of a hard drive shredder you can rest assure that these hard drives are impossible to be read and recovered.
We are the Professionals for Hard Drive Destruction
We have more than a decade of experience with hard drive data destruction and hold the highest standards for making sure that your data is destroyed permanently. At California Electronics Recycler we pride ourselves on our commitment to our clients when dealing with the destruction of their data while keeping the environment clean from electronic waste.
What happens after data is destroyed?
After electronics go through the process of data destruction at our certified recycling facility we either re-purpose the hardware or continue the destruction process with one of our R2 downstream vendors. Our R2 Certified vendors break down and separate the metals and plastics in the electronics and carefully dispose of the harmful materials. It is sometimes possible to recover some of the cost of disposal through the redistribution of these recycled materials.
