Process

How our certified ITAD process works.

Every engagement is managed through our Continuum Portal, providing real-time visibility while protecting your data, preserving chain of custody, maximizing value recovery, and generating audit-ready records.

01

Intake & Inventory

Assets are logged by device type, model, serial number, and condition before disposition decisions are made.

02

Secure Transport

Equipment moves through documented logistics coordination from pickup through arrival at the processing facility.

03

Data Sanitization

Storage media is wiped to NIST 800-88 standards or physically destroyed when wiping is not possible.

04

Grading & Valuation

Devices are inspected, graded, and valued for resale, redeployment, recycling, or secure destruction.

05

Remarketing or Recycling

Reusable equipment is refurbished for resale. Non-resalable equipment is responsibly recycled.

06

Reporting & Certificate

Clients receive serialized reporting and Certificate of Data Destruction documentation for records.

Compliance

Compliance, chain of custody, and reporting.

A stronger proof section for regulated buyers who need to know exactly how retired assets, storage media, and final reports are handled.

FAQ

Frequently asked ITAD questions.

These answers make the ITAD focus clearer before the live testimonials and certifications continue below.

What does an ITAD company do?

An ITAD company helps organizations retire old or unused technology in a safe and secure way. This includes certified data destruction, asset recovery, electronics recycling, and detailed reporting so you know how your equipment was handled.

What is the difference between ITAD and IT recycling?

IT recycling focuses on environmental disposal. ITAD is broader: it includes data destruction, asset valuation, remarketing for value recovery, recycling, and documented chain of custody.

How do you handle devices that cannot be wiped?

Storage media that cannot be wiped can be physically destroyed through secure shredding, with final Certificate of Data Destruction documentation for your records.

Can you support multi-site pickups?

Yes. Tech Defenders can coordinate logistics for organizations with multiple sites, helping simplify pickup, inventory, transportation, and reporting across locations.

Why is certified data destruction important?

Certified data destruction helps ensure sensitive information is permanently removed using approved methods. Tech Defenders follows R2v3 and NIST 800-88 aligned workflows throughout the enterprise ITAD process.

Highly recommend Tech Defenders. Very fair, accommodating, and patient. Sold quite a few old, out of AUE, Chromebooks to them this past Spring/Summer (700-ish), absolutely hassle free. Brent is great to work with. TD will be getting our next round of old Chromebooks.

Tech Defenders was a wonderful company to work with. My small school was discarding some older iPads. The process was easy and they were very fair with their assessments. Alyssa Anderson was great. She kept me informed regarding the status of my equipment all through the process. I highly recommend Tech Defenders if you have older technology equipment to discard.

We have worked with Tech Defenders for several years to provide insurance and repairs for our 1:1 Chromebook initiative. Their customer service is incredibly fast and helpful, their work is high quality, and their tracking system is easy to use and provides valuable reporting features. They have been a valued partner and I would highly recommend them.

Tech Defenders is the real deal. The process was extremely easy. They send you packaging and bubble wrap to pack up your devices. The time from contact to delivery of check was very long but most of that was my fault as some of the devices had not been unlicked. I was sent the list of locked devices. After unlocking, the process went quickly. I highly recommend them if you have old devices that you are trying to offload.
