Do you have an old computer or laptop and you have no clue how to get rid of it? How about a drawer filled with old phones, digital cameras and MP3 players? These items and similar items, such as office equipment, piles of paper, servers

and networking items, are not meant to be thrown away in your traditional trash can. Not only is it bad for the environment, the information contained on those devices can be a personal security issue for you, especially if those items are not disposed of properly.
