Upcoming SABVI e-Cycle Events
With the growing concern about the impact used computers, computer parts and other electronic products is having on the global environment, we are doing our part to improve quality of life.
Not only does our computer e-Cycle program help the environment, it also helps to create employment opportunities for the more than 70% of blind or vision impaired individuals who are unemployed. And, our process is designed to insure used computers and computer parts do not end up in landfills.
Each computer hard drive is wiped using DoD standards for data sanitization or physically destroyed to insure the highest level of data security. Certification of data sanitization and/or destruction is available for a fee. Free pick up service is available for quantities of twenty systems or more. Or, drop off your used equipment at any of our four convenient locations.
