WE ARE R2v3 & RIOS CERTIFIED
We are proud to be R2v3 and RIOS certified—a prestigious certification in the electronics and e-waste industry. This ANSI-accredited standard integrates ISO:14001 (environmental management), ISO:9001 (quality management), and OHSAS:18001 (occupational safety) requirements. These certifications confirm our commitment to responsible recycling practices, delivering consistent, reliable service wherever you are, and adapting to new materials and technologies as they emerge.
Selling your used corporate tape drives is straightforward:
Big Data Supply Inc.'s R2v3 & RIOS certification is highly relevant as it signifies adherence to the highest industry standards for managing electronic waste and securely handling data. The RIOS certification, accredited by ANSI, ensures compliance with ISO:14001 (environmental management), ISO:9001 (quality management), and OHSAS:18001 (occupational safety) standards. Only companies that meet rigorous responsible recycling criteria earn R2v3 & RIOS certification, making it a mark of excellence in secure, environmentally-friendly IT asset disposal. Working with an R2v3 & RIOS-certified company like Big Data Supply Inc. guarantees a dependable, secure service that upholds best practices in any location.
Your old storage tape drives might be worth more than you think. Many clients are pleasantly surprised by the value they receive for used equipment they assumed was outdated or beyond repair. Don’t be discouraged from selling your storage drives—age and condition play a role, but they don’t necessarily mean your drives are valueless.
Here’s what influences the price we offer:
We prioritize the secure and complete removal of any confidential or regulated information stored on your storage tapes during the sales or disposal process. Depending on your specific requirements, we can either conduct secure data deletion using advanced technologies or opt for physical destruction methods, such as degaussing or shredding.
Data eradication or destruction can be carried out either at our facility or directly on your premises—whichever you prefer. As an R2v3 & RIOS-certified company, we uphold the highest standards in secure data handling, ensuring there is no risk of sensitive information exposure.
Generally, any disposal or recycling costs are offset against the resale value of your storage tape drives, so you’re unlikely to incur extra fees. Recycling fees are based on the weight of the scrap material within the IT asset, and this amount can vary depending on the volume and value of the items.
