Your Asset Disposition Questions, Answered.
Learn how to start an ITAD, equipment recovery, data destruction, or recycling project.
01Do I need a complete inventory to begin?+
No. Share your site, equipment types, target date, and any list or photos you have.
02What is included in ITAD?+
An ITAD project can include inventory, pickup, approved data handling, resale assessment, recycling, and final reporting. The agreed scope defines what is included.
03Can equipment take different paths?+
Yes. Some assets may be reused or assessed for resale, while others are recycled. Data-bearing devices still follow your approved security plan.
04How is data handled?+
We identify devices that hold data and agree on sanitization or destruction requirements before they leave your site.
05Will I recover value from my equipment?+
Some equipment may have secondary-market value. A valuation is an assessment, not a guaranteed sale or payout.
06Can you recycle every electronic item?+
Not automatically. We review equipment type, batteries, data, condition, and the receiving provider before confirming pickup.
07What reports will I receive?+
The project scope defines the asset, custody, processing, and final disposition records you will receive.
08Can TALC work with my move partner?+
Yes. We can define the technology equipment scope and coordinate roles with your relocation or property team.
09Where does TALC work?+
Our primary coverage is San Francisco and the Bay Area. Ask us about another location before planning a project there.
10What should I send first?+
Send your location, equipment list or photos, target date, and any data-security or access requirements.
