Bay Area ITAD, a Terabit Systems company, handles the secure decommissioning of high-end switches, routers, and network hardware for data centers and hyperscalers — from the first de-rack to the final certificate.
Choose a single buyout or a consignment model. Either way, our direct remarketing channels into the secondary hardware market are built to recover more than a scrap-rate quote.
Every job runs to the R2v3 standard for responsible recycling. You get a signed certificate of data destruction before hardware ever leaves the chain of custody.
One point of contact owns logistics, compliance, and reporting for your project — no ticket queue, no re-explaining your environment to a new rep each call.
From a quick software erasure to physical shredding of drives and controllers, every method follows NIST 800-88 sanitization guidelines — matched to the sensitivity of what was stored on it.
Certificates issued per asset, per method.
Retired switches, routers, and optics move through a global network of vetted buyers and brokers. We handle the grading, the listing, and the settlement — you get a check and a report.
Built for hyperscaler and enterprise decommission volume.
Anything that can’t be resold gets processed to R2 standards. Nothing that can be reused or reclaimed goes to a landfill — full stop.
Downstream vendor audits on file, available on request.
Custom documentation packages built around your ESG and audit requirements — asset-level disposition records, not a generic summary PDF.
Formatted to slot directly into your existing audit trail.
Send us rack counts, hardware makes/models, and target dates. We quote a buyout or consignment structure within 48 hours.
Our team coordinates palletization, freight, and site access with your facilities team — de-rack to loading dock, tracked the whole way.
Every asset is scanned in, sanitized or destroyed per your policy, then routed to remarketing or R2-certified recycling.
You receive your payout or consignment statement alongside a full compliance report — serials, methods, and certificates included.
Certification isn't a logo on a website. Both standards are enforced by independent third-party audits of how we actually handle your hardware — from the data on it to the people processing it to where the material ends up.
The global standard for electronics reuse and recycling. It governs how data-bearing devices are tracked, sanitized, and dispositioned — and holds every downstream vendor in the chain to the same requirements.
Built specifically for recycling and scrap operations, RIOS integrates three disciplines that are usually certified separately into one management system — so quality, environmental performance, and worker safety are audited together rather than in isolation.
Mandates verifiable media sanitization and destruction, so retired drives never become a data leak.
Keeps your disposition program aligned with local and global law on waste handling and transport.
Sets a high bar for employee health and safety across every stage of the processing floor.
Unlocks partnerships and procurement channels that are only open to R2v3 certified vendors.
Backs your corporate social responsibility reporting and circular economy goals with audited proof.
If you're looking to recycle a personal laptop, phone, or consumer batteries, we're not the right fit for that volume. Call2Recycle can point you to a drop-off location near you.
