Recycling & Re-marketing

Asset Recycling and Remarketing Services

Information Systems Resources provides a cost-effective process to dispose of technology assets and recover maximum value from idle desktop technology. Our solution includes complete logistics and processing capabilities that exceed Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA, FIPPA and EPA guidelines, and the re-marketing of usable assets through a global broker network. Our program provides the necessary services to assist with minimizing the cost of retiring IT assets and maximizing the sale proceeds of the assets that are retired.

ISR offers our clients the flexibility of picking up IT assets at either the end users office, or from a warehouse location. Assets are transported to our 110,000 sq. ft. warehouse facility centrally located in Dearborn,  MI where they are processed for re-marketing or disposal. ISR provides hard drive data overwrite services that include single, triple or seven pass overwrite capability that meets HIPAA, U.S. Defense Department and International security standards. Occasionally, PC’s and servers will not boot due to hardware or software failure. In this case, ISR staff drill the hard drive and make the device completely inoperable.

ISR staff removes asset tags and client insignia, and separate assets into one of the following categories:

Disposed Assets

Assets that do not have re-sale value are disposed in accordance with EPA regulations. In short, monitors and laser printers have hazardous materials and must be disposed at an approved recycling center, where all assets are separated and crushed. ISR will provide a Certificate of Recycling, documenting environmental compliance.

Re-Market

Assets that are deemed to have re-sale value are sold at the highest possible market prices via ISR’s established international broker network. We can also administer an employee buy-back program of refurbished assets, which includes a 30-day warranty

Donated Assets

If requested, ISR will donate working assets to a charitable organization (school, church, etc). Donated assets will be delivered locally, or can be picked-up at ISR by the pre-approved organization.
