In our opinion, CT manages computer recycling as well as any state in the US.  The Connecticut E-Waste Recycling Law requires that all to be disposed of electronics must be recycled. The CT DEEP classifies all computer equipment as a Federal EPA defined and regulated “Universal Waste”.

DEEP regulations specifically state: “E-wastes generated from non-residential sources (commercial, governmental, retail, etc.) are regulated under current federal and state hazardous waste laws. Some electronic materials are considered hazardous waste. Others must be managed in accordance with the (Federal EPA) Universal Waste Regulations (RCSA Section 22a-449(c)-113).”

CT DEEP and Federal EPA universal waste handling regulations require that any processing (recycling) can only be performed by a licensed universal waste destination facility.  Only a universal waste destination facility can issue a legally valid environmental compliance certificate stating that the computer equipment has been properly recycled as required by the DEEP..

Our “Environmental Compliance Certificate” and EPA audit report meets with the CT E-Waste Laws Requirements

We document each project with a report listing the manufacturer, model, type of equipment, weight and serial number of every item of equipment recycled.  This EPA audit report provides a record supporting your compliance to the recycling regulations for every item of equipment disposed of.  Keep in mind that without a detailed legally valid environmental compliance certificate and audit report you could be held financially responsible for any environmental clean up costs if a one of your disposed of computers is found in an illegal dump.  This is a pretty remote risk but it has happened.

Hard Drive Destruction Under CONNECTICUT D.E.E.P. Regulations

Surveys have shown that the single largest concern by a factor of 2 to 1 by CIOs when recycling computer equipment is data security. The shredding of hard drives is by far the most effective technique for the destruction of recorded data. CT DEEP regulations specifically state:

To “Crush, shred and puncture hard drives and electronic data storage media generated from the disassembly of used electronics” you must be a permitted “universal waste destination facility” as identified under 40 CRF 260 of the Federal EPA universal waste handling code.

Back Thru The Future®, as a licensed universal waste destination facility, provides both onsite and plant-based regulatory compliant hard drive shredding.

We are NAID AAA certified as a secure plant based and mobile hard drive shredding operation.

We were the first computer recycling business in the US to receive this certification and we remain one of only a handful of licensed recyclers with this security certification.

With having both the industry’s highest available environmental and data security credentials why would you risk doing business with anyone with less?
