Reducing carbon emissions and responsibly disposing of decommissioned equipment
Extending the life of data center hardware helps companies reduce their carbon footprint, unnecessary waste, overspending and more. Deciding to delay a hardware refresh avoids the need to manufacture equipment using raw materials, metals, packaging and transportation, in turn, decreasing the production of CO2.
If a customer undergoes a hardware refresh based on capacity, compatibility and other requirements, our team ensures all decommissioned equipment is disposed following NIST 800-88 standards. The remaining equipment is either refurbished or recycled in a zero-landfill scrap facility.

Spotlight story
Soon after his birth in 2019, Jayne’s grandson, Oscar, was diagnosed with quadriplegic cerebral palsy. This diagnosis rocketed Jayne’s daughter and son-in-law into a new and unexpected world of hospital stays, medication, appointments, adaptations to their home, medical training, and so much more.
Bedford and District Cerebral Palsy Society (BDCPS) provided Oscar and his family with immense support. From providing counseling for parents to holding regular activities for children, craft groups and other ways to connect.
In 2021, BDCPS hosted a “Smile for a Mile” fundraiser asking participants to walk during the Easter holidays and donate to the organization. Team members came together to raise funds in support of Jayne and her family.
