Computer hard drives contain sensitive information like passwords, addresses, and financial details. Hard drive disposal, or hard drive destruction, renders these devices physically and digitally unusable. Overwriting, wiping, and shredding are a few methods to erase hard drive data, make residual data irretrievable, and physically destroy the devices beyond usability.
Computer hard drive disposal is integral to ethical and responsible electronics recycling. Careless disposal of hard drives in e-waste exposes individuals and businesses to cybersecurity threats.

When you participate in responsible hard drive disposal, you take care of more than just your data. Environmental concerns rule everything we do here at Hummingbird International — including hard drive recycling.
While most hard drives are made of nominal amounts of harmful metals like lead and mercury, enough can get into landfills when you throw in discarded hard drives with the regular e-waste. That’s why we follow a strict no-landfill policy.
Each hard drive is fully vetted to ensure it has been completely wiped and no residual data remains. Expert technicians then use high-tech equipment to destroy hard drives and render them unusable. All of this is done in EPA-compliant settings with our own rigorous environmental safety protocols in place. Throughout the process, we ensure zero harm to our people, their surroundings, and the environment.

When you send in your hard drives for disposal or recycling, insist on receiving a hard drive disposal certificate confirming that your data and devices have been destroyed. Remember that data destruction is a vital component of hard drive recycling. If an e-waste recycling company refuses to provide you with this certificate, they may not be the right people to trust with your sensitive data.
