Peabody, MA -- There is an easier way to dispose of old, used, obsolete computers and electronics without sending them to landfills -- recycle.
Old, used, obsolete computers and electronics are hazardous waste and should not be sent to a landfill, so Surfplus.Net helps companies get rid of old IT assets and protect the environment at the same time.
"Packing up all that computer equipment and taking it to your local landfill is hard work. Surfplus.Net makes it much easier to recycle than it is to go to the dump. We simply do all the work. What could be easier than that," exclaimed Don Hardy of http://www.Surfplus.Net.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has issued warnings for many years about the hazards of putting electronic equipment in a landfill. Computers and monitors contain hazardous waste such as lead and other toxic heavy metals. Millions of computers are replaced every year and Surfplus.Net provides a way for companies to recycle that equipment safely.
Surfplus.Net specializes in asset management and have associations with leading computer technology manufactures, private, and leasing companies.
"We can sell your overstocked, used, or excess inventory. Surfplus.Net will go that extra mile in helping you turn your excess stock into dollars back in your pocket. We assist our clients with the identification, redeployment and or disposition of surplus assets," said Hardy.
Although U.S. companies are constantly upgrading computers, older computers that Americans often consider to be obsolete are in demand on other countries. Surfplus.Net has ready customers in those countries.
"There is a significant worldwide market for used computers," said Hardy. "In fact, the demand is greater than the supply."
Surfplus.Net arranges for all the logistics involved in collection and transportation of surplus computers to its warehouse. From there the computers are packaged and loaded into containers to be shipped to computer users in foreign countries.
Surfplus.Net services companies in the Boston and New England area, but Hardy said he welcomes calls from other locations as well.
