End of Lifecycle

There are four possible End of Lifecycle order types:

Buyback: The Laptop Buyback Program at GroWrk facilitates the sale of old or surplus laptops, offering businesses credit in exchange. This program provides a cost-effective and responsible solution for managing outdated equipment. Secure data wiping is included, and a certificate of data destruction is provided if applicable.

Destruction: GroWrk’s Destruction Service offers secure and thorough destruction of IT devices to ensure complete data elimination. This includes physical destruction of devices like hard drives or motherboards to prevent data breaches. In some countries, complete device destruction is available. The service includes a certificate of destruction and data wiping.

Donation: GroWrk’s Donation Program allows companies to support causes or communities by donating old IT equipment. Devices are repurposed to benefit charitable organizations, with Growrk managing the logistics and issuing certificates to acknowledge the donation. This program includes secure data wiping to protect sensitive information.

Recycle: GroWrk’s Recycling Service ensures IT equipment is recycled responsibly, adhering to strict environmental standards. This service involves proper processing of materials and secure data erasure. A recycling certificate and data destruction confirmation are provided to support environmental sustainability.
