Regardless of the size or industry of your company, you need a defined process and secure procedures for disposing of retired and non-working assets. Regulatory penalties, a damaged brand reputation and inadvertent disclosures could result from improper methods.

Iron Mountain® Secure e-Waste and IT Asset Disposition (Secure ITAD) services enable you to securely dispose of obsolete IT assets in an environmentally-responsible manner through certified partner organisations. You can also maximise your asset value recovery with industry-leading logistics and secure chain of custody processes.

Iron Mountain works with e-Stewards or R2 certified partner organisations that follow the strictest environmental and data privacy guidelines. Customers have the option to retain the value of retired IT assets through refurbishment, data sanitisation, and reselling at market price. This allows customers to participate in the circular economy while reducing the total cost of ownership and fully maintaining security and sustainability requirements. Assets can also be recycled and we adhere to the strictest guidelines including a no-overseas and no-landfill policy.
At Iron Mountain, we’re always looking for ways to improve our own environmental performance within our operations. We’re proud of our UK Eco Box, made from 80% recycled materials and 20% from sustainably managed forests. It’s certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), a group that works to ensure forests are properly and responsibly maintained to meet economic needs, conserve biodiversity and preserve species, while also taking into account land rights and the rights of indigenous communities and workers.

We believe that innovation and integrity pave the path to long term, sustainable success and are pleased to offer services that bring our customers closer to meeting their corporate values and stated goals. These solutions validate our belief that doing good and doing business do not have to be independent initiatives. In fact, by taking advantage of these products and services, our customers can advance their goals for sustainability while contributing to an industry-wide movement to reduce waste and enable more environmentally-conscious management of information in a meaningful and measurable way.
