Your Computer Recycling Answer ... with more than 15 years in the recycling field, Forerunner Recycling has given Ann Arbor companies a responsible option to dispose end of life cycle and surplus computer equipment. All Ann Arbor based companies face the task of safely disposing of older equipment. The EPA estimates that as many as 500 million computers will soon become obsolete.As Ann Arbor businesses upgrade existing PCs, more computers and other electronics are finding their way into the waste stream. According to the EPA, over two million tons of electronics waste is discarded each year and goes to U.S. landfills. Now you have a partner in the recycling business who understands your need to safely dispose of your computer and electronic equipment in an environmentally responsible manner. By promoting reuse and recycling, we extend the life of computer equipment and reduce waste. Free Computer RecyclingWe attempt to remove the financial barrier to recycling computer equipment. By extracting maximum resale value from the systems we recycle, we can offer free recycling services to most of our clients. 100% RecyclingWe maximize the life-cycle of every part of a discarded system by breaking down equipment to circuit board level and refurbishing as much material as possible. This keeps recyclable material out of the waste stream. Charitable ContributionsWe assist Ann Arbor nonprofit organizations by providing usable computer equipment for programs that serve the community. Secure Data Destruction Today, more than ever, Ann Arbor companies discarding computer equipment are concerned about identity theft, security compliance, and cyber criminals trying to obtain private information. Simply tossing used computer equipment and hard disks into dumpsters will leave companies vulnerable to unscrupulous individuals searching for credit card numbers, social security numbers, and other valuable data.Forerunner Recycling, your partner in the recycling business, understands the need to safely dispose of computer equipment in a manner that guarantees no data is available for exploitation.
