NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 sets out Clear, Purge, and Destroy as the federal sanitization categories for media containing sensitive data, deferring to IEEE 2883 for technique detail. Our documentation is designed to support DoD 5220.22-M and HIPAA 45 CFR §164.312 technical safeguard reviews. Serial-level certificates of destruction support audit reviews for Keystone organizations.

How does computer liquidation work in Keystone? STS Electronic Recycling evaluates your equipment, grades each device, and schedules free pickup for qualifying business volumes across Hillsborough County. Data is sanitized before resale at our 250,000 sq ft processing operation, and ROI documentation follows for finance review, with chain of custody records for every asset.

NIST describes media sanitization as a process that "renders access to the target data on the media infeasible for a given level of effort," the objective STS sanitization supports. Corporate IT directors typically expect serial-level reporting for audit reviews, and healthcare compliance officers expect HIPAA technical safeguards at hospitals such as HCA Florida Trinity Hospital.

NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 Alignment

Retired computers carry stored data, so sanitization is completed before any device is resold. NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 purge-level methods accept a verified overwrite or physical destruction for Keystone organizations handling sensitive data.

According to the UN Global E-waste Monitor 2024, only 22.3% of the 62 million tonnes of e-waste generated in 2022 was documented as properly collected and recycled. Most Hillsborough County organizations expect downstream documentation showing where retired equipment ended up and what it returned in ROI reports.

About Keystone

Keystone is an unincorporated community in northwest Hillsborough County, about 22 miles from downtown Tampa. The county provides all local services to residents in ZIP codes 33556 and 33558.

Its workforce spans professional services (2,002 residents), healthcare (1,706), and retail (1,072). BayCare Health System (33,631 employees) and HCA Florida Healthcare (50+ Florida hospitals) represent the local healthcare sector requiring secure, fully documented IT asset disposition.

STS Electronic Recycling serves Keystone, Cheval, Northdale, Citrus Park, and Westchase, with scheduled pickups reaching the Westshore business district and the MacDill corridor.

Why the paperwork matters

An undocumented drive is a finding waiting to happen

Most disposal vendors are compliant, and for routine volumes a standard pickup is the right call. The exposure sits in the gap between collection and processing, where custody is recorded but not observed.

For drives holding protected health information, financial records, or student data, that gap is what an auditor asks about first. Serial level records close it, and they also rule out the in-house drill and hammer methods that fail federal particle size requirements while feeling secure.

About STS Electronic Recycling

Where Your Equipment Is Processed

STS Electronic Recycling, Inc. is headquartered in Jacksonville, Texas, and has served schools, businesses, healthcare systems, and government agencies across all 50 states since 2011.

Equipment collected in Keystone is staged locally and transported to one of our two R2v3 certified processing facilities in Jacksonville, Texas and Houston, Texas, where all data destruction and material recovery takes place.

Collection, transport and processing are staffed by STS crews rather than subcontracted to a third-party carrier, which is why the chain of custody holds from your dock to the certificate.
