Printers & Scanners Recycling and Disposition

Printers and scanners contain hazardous, toxic materials. If you have used or obsolete printers and  computers, Comprenew can help. We make it easy to do the right thing.

Comprenew prioritizes refurbishing over recycling whenever possible. When refurbishment of printers and scanners isn’t possible, we disassemble these devices to recoverable hazardous materials and route other components into streams of commodities that can be reused or converted into raw materials again.

Sometimes, printers can retain data and sensitive information. When they do, Comprenew properly destroys all data, either through complete shredding of data devices to small pieces or by removing device data using leading industry practices for media sanitization (NIST 800-88.)

If you have printers and scanners to be refurbished or recycled, take them to one of our drop-off locations—or click to schedule a pick-up.

Comprenew also offers IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) through its Secure Asset Technology Disposition services.

Certified Electronics Recycling. It Matters.

It matters whom you choose. Unless you pay attention, your toxic e-waste can wind up in a landfill in a third-world country or shipped to a downstream trash vendor. That’s not how things work at Comprenew. We are certified to the highest standards in the electronics recycling industry. In fact, Comprenew is the only e-Stewards-certified recycler in Michigan, and the only non-profit electronic recycler in the world that is both R2 and e-Stewards certified.

Among other things, Comprenew’s e-Steward certification requires us to:

• Properly destroy all sensitive data
• Operate with a tight chain of custody
• Manage toxic e-waste by the highest standards to protect workers and the environment
• Guarantee responsible downstream management of toxic materials
• Utilize ethical labor
• Not export toxic e-waste to developing countries

Our Comprenew’s R2 certification requires us to:

• Prioritize electronics refurbishment whenever possible
• Properly destroy all sensitive data
• Monitor workplace health and safety
• Maintain legal compliance
• Carefully track all equipment
• Maintain sufficient insurance to cover operations

Choose Comprenew for computer and electronics recycling services. We make it easy to do the right thing.
