What do New Port Richey privacy officers ask first?
Answers on standards, service area, scheduling, and PHI bearing equipment.
What standards and documentation do you provide?
Per NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2, sanitization "renders access to the target data on media infeasible for a given level of effort." STS follows it and issues serial level certificates of destruction and a chain of custody report for every healthcare pickup.
What areas do you serve?
Anyone searching for IT recycling near me in New Port Richey finds STS offers scheduled pickup in Gulf Harbors, Beacon Square, and Pasco County. Pickups also cover Port Richey, Holiday, and Hudson along the US 19 corridor, scheduled around your clinic hours.
How long does pickup take?
Most New Port Richey pickups are scheduled within the same week, depending on volume, site access, and the number of departments involved. Large phased refreshes are planned with your IT and clinical teams, and certificates typically follow within 48 hours.
Does STS support HIPAA requirements?
HIPAA compliance rests with the covered entity, and STS builds its destruction and documentation to support those requirements. Methods follow NIST SP 800-88, and the records are formatted to fit your audit file and retention schedule.
Do you provide Business Associate Agreements?
Ask about a Business Associate Agreement before your first pickup so your privacy officer can review terms in advance. Our team can also walk through how custody records and certificates map to your HIPAA documentation.
How do you handle PHI on mobile devices?
Phones and tablets are logged by serial number, then sanitized or physically destroyed according to your policy. Each device appears on the same custody report as larger equipment, so nothing falls outside the audit trail.

Single clinic pickups and phased hospital refreshes run through one documented workflow. The figures below are the operating baseline, not a peak.
Why is a retired drive a breach risk until it is documented?
An undocumented device is a breach risk because nobody can prove where it went. Large systems such as BayCare Health System and independent Pasco County practices face that question at retirement.
New Port Richey is the West Pasco seat for county government and courts, and its economy centers on healthcare, government, retail, and tourism. See how STS handles healthcare electronic recycling for hospitals and clinics.

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 New Port Richey 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.
