Hotels and hospitality groups face unique challenges when retiring electronics, from protecting guest data to coordinating pickups around nonstop operations. Devices like TVs, POS terminals, GPS units, and emergency signage often contain hazardous materials or sensitive data that require specialized handling.
Equip Recycling provides secure, compliant decommissioning with data destruction aligned to NIST SP 800-88, material recovery through R2v3-certified channels, and serialized audit reporting for full traceability. Our zero-landfill policy supports sustainability goals, and flexible scheduling ensures minimal disruption to daily operations.
Let us help build a compliant, zero-landfill e-waste recycling plan for your property. Schedule a free e-waste pickup today.
Hotels routinely upgrade electronics like surveillance systems, guest room amenities, and POS terminals. These devices often contain sensitive data or hazardous materials that require certified handling. Equip Recycling ensures secure, compliant disposal to protect guest privacy, reduce liability, and meet environmental regulations.
We follow NIST SP 800-88 for data destruction, use R2v3-certified channels for material recovery, and provide serialized audit reports for full traceability. Our zero-landfill policy and flexible scheduling help hospitality groups decommission assets without disrupting operations.
As hotels replace outdated point-of-sale terminals, they must address risks like retained customer data and improper disposal. Equip Recycling sanitizes devices using NIST SP 800-88 protocols, including overwriting, degaussing, or shredding based on media type. Drives and memory chips storing payment data are often destroyed outright.
Disassembled units yield recyclable materials such as copper wiring and aluminum frames. Lithium batteries and touchscreens are routed to authorized disposal channels. Working with R2v3-certified vendors helps hotels meet PCI compliance and maintain audit readiness.
As hotels upgrade from analog to digital surveillance, legacy cameras, monitors, and storage hardware must be decommissioned securely. These devices often store sensitive footage and contain hazardous components such as lithium batteries, mercury switches, and lead solder.
The process begins with data sanitization using NIST SP 800-88 or DoD 5220.22-M standards. Once data is wiped or drives are destroyed, equipment is dismantled to recover copper, aluminum, and rare earth magnets. Hazardous materials are isolated and routed to authorized disposal channels.
Certified recycling partners provide serialized audit reports and environmental tracking to support compliance and ensure safe, responsible asset recovery.
Older emergency lights and exit signs often contain nickel-cadmium or sealed lead-acid batteries, fluorescent lamps, and circuit boards. These components require careful dismantling to prevent toxic exposure and ensure legal disposal.
Certified recyclers process batteries and lamps under hazardous waste regulations. Aluminum and steel housings are recovered and resold, while toxic elements are routed to authorized facilities.
Facilities receive recycling manifests and hazardous waste certificates to support compliance and audit readiness.
Outdated in-room devices like CRT televisions, incandescent lighting, and analog climate controllers must be handled carefully to avoid environmental and data risks. Small appliances, routers, and mini-fridges are dismantled to recover copper, plastic, and aluminum, while hazardous components such as mercury backlights and leaded glass are routed to authorized disposal channels.
Smart TVs and connected thermostats are sanitized using NIST-compliant protocols before disassembly. Partnering with certified ITAD providers ensures safe recovery, regulatory compliance, and progress toward sustainability goals.
Navigation devices used in hotel fleets store location histories, contain rechargeable batteries, and include embedded electronics. When replaced, they must be decommissioned using certified processes to protect data and avoid improper waste handling.
