Electronics Recycling in Bismarck
Bismarck
Today, corporate refresh cycles are becoming much shorter. On average, businesses replace their electronic equipment every one to three years, and the time frame is even quicker for mobile devices like cell phones and tablets.
Upgrading your equipment is, of course, essential to competing amongst the many businesses in Bismarck, but your company must have a concrete plan for what to do with your gear when it reaches the end of its lifecycle.
When your equipment is compromised, there is a significant risk at play for data breaches and compliance failures. Both are costly, but they’re also preventable, and when you trust SEAM to wipe and destroy your data and recycle your materials, you significantly reduce the likelihood that your business will ever face such issues.
What We Can Offer Our Clients
Our data destruction and electronics recycling services are top-notch and compliant with past and current data security standards and regulations across many sectors. Whether we destroy or recycle your materials, you can rest assured that we will protect your business and the clients who trust you as we do so.
The North Dakota Department of Environmental Quality has strict rules about the disposal of electronic equipment in landfills. The Bismarck landfill charges a fee for commercial disposal to discourage business owners from throwing away their devices.
Electronic waste has clearly become a huge environmental problem, and our recycling service provides a much-needed answer. Due to our strict “no landfill” policy, we recycle electronics with the primary focus of reusing them.
Wherever possible, whole units suitable for reuse are tested, securely erased, refurbished, and remarketed. Some clients may even be eligible for revenue share when those items sell. Those items that cannot be refurbished are broken down into their core elements (plastic, glass, aluminum, copper wire, and more and used in the most environmentally safe manner possible.
Our recycling process complies with e-Stewards and R2 standards, and we provide all clients with a certificate of recycling for their compliance or financial records. Our team and downstream partners uphold the safety of the public, the environment, and the staff members handling your materials.
Bismarck businesses rely on us to completely destroy their electronics and the sensitive data on their mobile phones, tablets, computer hard drives, USB drives, CDs, and DVDs. Our technicians maintain strict security protocols from start to finish, providing clients with access to security carts and bins to ready their materials and then completing end-of-life processing at our secure facility.
SEAM can provide onsite or offsite destruction services using our industrial shredding equipment. For those who prefer to bear witness, our robust mobile tools allow for destroying data without materials leaving the business site. Our hard drive destruction process aligns with NIST SP 800-88r1 standards, and all of our clients receive a certificate of destruction and electronically-accessed reports, including information about serial numbers and asset tags.

Working with SEAM
While network security is vital, so is the security of your data-containing materials. Severe risks to your business operations, reputation, and bottom line all arise when you aren’t careful about who handles your hardware.
We have seen too many stories of improper data disposal, leading to data being compromised or held hostage by falling into the wrong hands. We never want our clients to experience such a scenario, and we do everything in our power to ensure it doesn’t happen to them.
SEAM can provide services across a wide range of industries because we understand the nature and severity of each client’s needs. From Bismarck hospitals and medical networks that must comply with HIPAA laws to educational institutions bound by FERPA restrictions, we familiarize ourselves with regulatory rules to provide the security our customers require. We leave no stone unturned and no materials exposed, which is precisely why our clients trust us with their most precious assets.
