NIST 800-88 Rev. 1 Compliance for Computer Liquidation

STS Electronic Recycling provides R2v3 certified computer liquidation for Southeast Michigan businesses with NIST 800-88 compliant data destruction prior to any remarketing. Our de-manufacturing process separates precious metals—gold, palladium, and copper—from circuit boards using mechanical shearing and magnetic separation. Ford Motor Company, General Motors, and Wayne County government agencies each require this documented compliance before equipment leaves their facilities, satisfying NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1 purge-level standards requiring 3-pass overwrite minimum or physical destruction.

  • NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1 certified data sanitization
  • DoD 5220.22-M compliant overwrite procedures
  • NSA/CSS Evaluated Products List (EPL) shredding equipment
  • Serial-specific NAID certified certificates of destruction for audit compliance
  • Chain-of-custody documentation from pickup through final processing

According to the UN Global E-waste Monitor 2024, only 22.3% of the 62 million tonnes of e-waste generated globally is properly recycled. The EPA estimates 2.7 million tons of e-waste reach U.S. landfills annually—R2v3 certified processing diverts this material to responsible downstream processors. Wayne County organizations receive downstream documentation confirming materials reached R2-certified smelters—standard in every STS engagement.

How Does STS Ensure Data Security During Liquidation?

According to NAID AAA certification standards, verified through unannounced audits, STS Electronic Recycling demonstrates compliance, demonstrating compliance with NSA/CSS EPL requirements for media sanitization. Per R2v3:2020 certification standards, downstream tracking documents all materials through final processing at R2-certified smelters. When IT Directors at organizations like Rocket Companies and Henry Ford Health liquidate computers, proprietary data, patient records, and financial information are permanently and verifiably destroyed before remarketing occurs.

(313) 572-8989

What is computer liquidation and how does it differ from recycling?

Computer liquidation focuses on maximizing residual value from retired IT equipment through grading, remarketing, and resale before any recycling occurs. STS Electronic Recycling provides Detroit IT asset recovery with certified data destruction first, then value optimization through remarketing for qualifying equipment, with responsible recycling for end-of-life units.

Is data destruction included in computer liquidation?

Always. NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1 compliant data destruction occurs before any equipment grading or remarketing. Every engagement includes serial-specific certificates of destruction satisfying HIPAA 45 CFR §164.312, SOC 2, and ISO 27001 audit requirements. No equipment is remarketed without verified data destruction documentation on file.

Can you handle large-scale liquidation for Detroit automotive companies?

Yes. Our 600,000 sq ft facility handles enterprise-scale projects including full data center decommissioning and multi-building coordination across Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, and Washtenaw counties. STS serves organizations at the scale of Ford Motor Company (48,000 employees) and GM (37,400) with the logistics infrastructure required for large automotive IT refreshes.

What Detroit and Wayne County areas do you serve?

STS provides free pickup throughout Dearborn, Livonia, Warren, Sterling Heights, Westland, Taylor, and Southfield. Corporate IT Directors evaluating computer liquidation vendors in the metro area find STS covers the Renaissance Center, Midtown, Corktown, New Center, and Rivertown districts, plus Oakland, Macomb, and Washtenaw counties.

How quickly can you schedule a pickup?

Most organizations receive same-week pickup. Our secure fleet serves locations near I-94, I-75, and throughout the M-10 Lodge Freeway corridor. Large-scale decommissioning projects include dedicated project planning and coordination with your IT team for multi-day or phased pickups throughout the region.

What documentation do we receive after computer liquidation?

Every engagement includes serial-specific certificates of destruction, chain-of-custody reports, weight tickets, asset recovery and remarketing summaries, and ESG impact reports. Documentation satisfies SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, SOX 404, and government audit requirements throughout Southeast Michigan.
