Asset disposal order options

IT Asset Disposal makes it easy to dispose of assets. Whether you’ve identified end-of-life assets through Insights, or have planned to retire a workstation or server via an Initiative or Roadmap, disposing of an asset at the end of its lifecycle is simple with Lifecycle Manager.

IT Asset Disposal is free for all Partners on a current Lifecycle Manager subscription.

Prerequisites

The following is required to use the IT Asset Disposal service:

  • You must be a US-based (including Alaska and Hawaii) Pro user in the Lifecycle Manager platform.
  • All applicable assets must have BIOS and/or iCloud unlocked.

  • You must have Administrator user credentials for your Lifecycle Manager account or Place Orders & Manage Billing permissions to place disposal orders.

IT Asset Disposal offers two levels of shipping service, depending on your order size and preference.

Information Needed for Full-Service:

  • Site and access details (e.g., elevator or loading dock availability).
  • List of extra materials required (e.g., moving dollies, boxes, pallets, stretch wrap).
  • Preference for extra assistance in gathering items.
  • Tick the appropriate boxes and provide freeform descriptions if needed.

  • We will coordinate shipping arrangements with you based on your preferences.

A tree will be planted for every asset you put through (up to 10 trees per order) our IT Asset Disposal service, and once the order has been received and the process is complete, you’ll receive a Certificate of Disposal verifying data destruction.
