As businesses continue to upgrade their technology and pursue sustainability goals, responsible e-waste management is more important than ever. Whether you're recycling laptops, networking equipment, or office appliances, a little preparation goes a long way.


✅ Step 1: Take Inventory of Eligible Items


Begin by identifying the electronics you plan to recycle. Common items include:


  • Laptops, desktops, tablets

  • Monitors, LCD screens

  • Printers, fax machines, projectors

  • POS systems, routers, switches

  • Phones (VoIP or analog)

  • Medical and testing equipment

  • Coffee machines, microwaves, mini fridges

  • Cables, wires, UPS units, and more


📌 Tip: A minimum of 10 qualified items is required for free pickup.Unsure what counts? Check our qualified items list or contact us for clarification.


✅ Step 2: Back Up & Prepare Data-Bearing Devices


Before pickup, back up data and remove personal or company information from devices when possible. While Elian offers certified data destruction, it’s good practice to:


  • Log out of user accounts and cloud services

  • Perform factory resets if applicable

  • Flag any devices that require secure data wiping


🛡️ We provide Certificates of Data Destruction upon request for your records and compliance needs.


✅ Step 3: Designate a Pickup Area

Choose a secure, accessible location within your facility for item collection. Ideal spots include:


  • Near an entrance or loading dock

  • Away from employee workstations

  • Clearly marked for pickup


Please let our team know in advance about access instructions, including parking, loading zones, or elevator use.
