Peabody, MA -- When a large company upgrades existing IT infrastructure a new problem is created by the now obsolete IT assets that are no longer needed.
Environmentally conscious IT managers recognize the importance of keeping electronics out of landfills, but obsolete computers are hard to get rid of. Many companies store surplus electronics until they discover the services of Surfplus.Net.
"Our focus is on helping technology manufacturers and corporations dispose of inactive, obsolete, and surplus electronics equipment," explained Don Hardy of http://www.Surfplus.net.
Protection of the environment and helping third world countries go hand in hand, says Hardy. Surfplus.Net recycles even the oldest of computer equipment to keep electronics out of landfills.
"We will haul away old equipment that is no longer needed, and we will then send it to countries where it can be put to use. We enable companies to protect the environment and help out people who are less fortunate to have computer equipment," said Hardy.
Surfplus.Net services companies in the Boston and New England area, but Hardy said he welcomes calls from other locations as well.
"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.
"Some equipment may be disassembled and the parts recycled, but everything is salvaged and nothing ends up in the landfill. We are extremely protective of our environment," explained Hardy.
