About Yard

Computers, servers, laptops, cell phones, and ALL electronics are recycled responsibly here with "cradle to grave" management of hazardous waste and legal compliance to the Responsible Recycling (R2) practices developed and maintained by Sustainable Electronics Recycling International or SERI. The R2 standard promotes environmental protection, human health and safety, and responsible recycling of electronics equipment. So, why risk taking your electronics elsewhere?
Responsibly recycling electronics is our business and we are committed to doing it right. Albuquerque Recycling, Inc. is the contracted provider for both the City of Albuquerque AND the City of Rio Rancho. We are the best in the Southwest and proudly a New Mexico company.
As the state's premier electronics recycling company, we offer the latest technology for data destruction and security. You are assured of working with a company that offers the most responsible practices in protecting the environment (ISO-14001 certified); we care enough about our workers to hold a certification for worker health and safety (OHSAS 18001), a system of accountability and adherence to the highest industry standards.
We take data destruction seriously and that's why we have invested in state-of-the-art equipment to provide you with peace of mind knowing that all the data existing on your hard drive is electronically shredded and is no longer retrievable by any means. Please visit our page on data destruction for all the details.
Responsibly recycling computers and electronics is very important to businesses, governmental agencies, healthcare organizations, financial institutions and schools. For solutions centered around audit reporting, chain-of-custody and asset management, check out ITAD Services.

The mission statement of ARI is to provide optimal end-of-life asset management of electronic equipment. Our company is the one and only electronics recycling company in New Mexico to be R2 (Responsible Recycling) Certified, a nationally recognized accredited certification for electronics recycling. You can find our company listed on their website at www.sustainableelectronics.org
So, what does it mean to be R2 Certified? ARI is certified to a nationally-accepted standard for recycling electronics called the R2 Standard. R2 is rigorously and independently audited, emphasizing quality, safety, and transparency.
The R2 Standard was created in 2008 through a multi-stakeholder process that included the U.S. EPA, electronics manufacturers, recycling companies, non-profit organizations, and other groups. Electronics recycling and refurbishment facilities certified to the R2 Standard adhere to best-practices in worker health and safety, environmental protection, chain-of-custody reporting, data security, and other areas.
We follow the R2 hierarchy of reuse as the highest form of recycling followed by recovery and disposal of electronics in an environmentally safe manner. Our goal of zero landfill waste is met by diverting electronics from entering landfills. This mission will significantly benefit the communities we serve, our state and our environment.

Article on Devastating Effects of Improper Electronics Recycling

R2 (Responsible Recycling) follows an international standard for the proper recycling of electronics. When you work with a R2 Certified company it truly makes a difference.
See the article below for a glimpse into a world rarely seen here in the U.S. This is the result of improper electronics recycling and the dire affects on human health and the environment. This is recycling done by companies who are not certified and in it only for money with no standards and who use other countries as their dumping ground.
"Jesús Gómez—El Tanque to anyone who knows him—navigates around 60 tons of junked electronics to see what’s going on outside. Sweaty young men have just dumped two huge sacks of spent Motorola cable-TV boxes on the street here, in Colonia Renovación, a neighborhood in Mexico City. Gómez watches as eight men and a woman sit in a circle under an intense sun, breaking the boxes apart with ball-peen hammers and chisels. They work to the beat of banda, Mexico’s heartthrob country music, wrenching out bits of copper, metal, and circuitry. Gómez will find buyers for all of it. Shards of metal and plastic fly. Metallic-tasting dust hangs in the air.
Just inside his shop, Gómez’s 3-year-old grandson, Alexis, plays around a teetering pile of mangled steel computer casings. The boy’s mother, eight months pregnant, sits on a pile of junked PCs, untangling a mass of old phone chargers. She’s hemmed in by electronic waste, or e-waste, stacked two stories high inside a tin-roofed space the size of a three-car garage. Outside the workshop are more piles, and there are yet more in the street; the junk seems to pour in constantly, some of it from around Mexico City and a lot from much farther. Gómez’s younger brother and business partner, Genovevo, points to some Epson printers trapped in the heap, way above his head. They’re from Texas, he says; the shop has bought dozens of truckloads of e-waste from north of the border in the past two years. “The gringos throw it out,” Genovevo says. “We do the dirty work of breaking it apart.”"

Data Destruction

Information security has never been more important to businesses and organizations than it is today. Data is exchanged at the speed of light and it can become difficult to keep track of what is stored on your company’s electronic media devices. As equipment becomes obsolete it is crucial to have a trusted Data Destruction Services provider to ensure that your proprietary and sensitive information does not become a target of data theft.
If you leave your unwanted electronics in storage, or in the hands of someone who does not practice secure data destruction, you are no longer in control of your organization’s information. This can lead to problems such as exposing your customer’s personal data or your company’s proprietary information to hackers and identity thieves. Don’t take that risk! Use Albuquerque Recycling’s state-of-the-art data erasure/eradication services to eliminate this possibility.
Albuquerque Recycling’s professional data destruction services meet or exceed the standards as identified within the articles of the National Institute for Standards and Technology’s Special Publication NIST 800-88, HIPAA, SoX and GLBA. When data is eliminated in adherence with these standards, your organization can be ensured that all of its recorded information is thoroughly destroyed and that the media is unreadable.
When we provide our services for your hard drive data erasure/eradication, not only do we guarantee that your media will be irretrievable, we can also provide you with a report including the Certificate of Compliance/NIST 800-88 listing the serial numbers of the hard drives and a Certificate of Data Destruction (COD) documenting that the data destruction services were completed.
Onsite data destruction is offered to businesses and government agencies that require eye witness onsite data destruction at their physical location. Transport of our mobile hard drive degausser makes it possible to bring data destruction to your location. Special pricing applies so, call for details.
