Simple Mail-In Electronics Recycling for Plano Businesses
When Plano businesses need to dispose of 1–25 devices without scheduling a full pickup, the STS mail-in program is the solution. No minimum quantity required — request a prepaid FedEx label, pack securely, and drop off at any FedEx location in Plano or Collin County. Our processing team handles the rest.
Once your shipment arrives at our R2v3 certified facility, every device is inventoried, cataloged by serial number, and processed according to its data destruction requirements. For Plano businesses in regulated industries — financial services, healthcare, or IT consulting — this creates a clean, documented disposal trail without the coordination overhead of an on-site pickup.
Prepaid FedEx Labels
Request a prepaid shipping label and drop off at any FedEx location — no pickup scheduling required
No Minimum Quantity
Mail in as little as one device or a full box of equipment — the same certified process applies to every shipment
Serial Number Tracking
Every device inventoried individually at intake — your documentation matches your internal asset records
Packaging Guidelines
We provide packing instructions to ensure your equipment arrives safely and is processed without delay
NIST-Certified Data Destruction on Every Mailed Device
Data security does not stop at the shipping dock. NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1 requires that all media containing sensitive data be sanitized through cryptographic erasure or physical destruction before final disposition. Every device received through the STS mail-in program undergoes certified data destruction — including hard drive wiping, degaussing for magnetic media, or physical shredding for drives that require it.
Under NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1 guidelines, Plano businesses in financial services and IT face binding sanitization requirements for SOX, GLBA, and state data privacy statutes. Certified data destruction through the STS mail-in program satisfies these standards — without requiring an on-site audit or witnessed destruction event.
NIST SP 800-88 Wipe
Cryptographic erasure or multi-pass overwrite meeting federal data sanitization standards
Physical Hard Drive Shredding
Available for drives requiring physical destruction — with photographic documentation on request
Degaussing for Magnetic Media
High-powered degaussing renders magnetic storage media completely unreadable before processing
Verified Sanitization Reports
Software-generated erasure reports confirm successful data destruction for every processed drive
Compliance Documentation Delivered After Every Shipment
After your mailed equipment is processed, STS issues a complete documentation package — including a Certificate of Destruction with serial numbers, a chain-of-custody report, and an environmental impact summary. This documentation satisfies audit requirements for regulated industries and supports ESG reporting for Plano corporate offices.
Per R2v3:2020 certification standards, downstream tracking must document materials through final processing at certified smelters. According to IBM's 2024 Cost of a Data Breach Report, improperly disposed hardware contributes to breach events averaging $4.88 million — making certified mail-in electronic waste disposal essential for Plano organizations handling sensitive data.
