Your Computer Recycling Answer

... with more than 15 years in the recycling field, Forerunner Recycling has given Chattanooga companies a responsible option to dispose end of life cycle and surplus computer equipment. All Chattanooga 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 Chattanooga 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 Recycling

We 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% Recycling

We 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 Contributions

We assist Chattanooga nonprofit organizations by providing usable computer equipment for programs that serve the community.

Secure Data Destruction

Today, more than ever, Chattanooga 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.

Hard drives are erased using the Department of Defense's DoD 5220.22-M standard, or if necessary, hard drives are physically destroyed. We'll do whatever it takes to ensure your company data doesn't fall into the wrong hands.

Meaning of City Name:

The likeness of the sounds to other Indian words has caused other explanations to be offered, giving such meanings as "Eagle's Nest" and "Crow's Nest." And some people claim that "Chattanooga" means "difficulty," a word that expressed the Indian's description of the task the river encounters in flowing around Moccasin Bend.
Still there were other people who claimed that Chattanooga is a Choctaw word meaning "end of the Choctaw possessions." And "Draw-fish-out-of-the-water" found favor with some students of history. However, Joshua Ross, a nephew of the chief, declared that the word was taken from the Creek Indian word "Chat-to-to-noog-gee" which means "rock rising to a point," a fitting description of Lookout Mountain.
