About Yard

Green Penguin, Inc. is committed to reducing the volume of the e-waste stream and its resulting impact on our environment and world. We provide data destruction, asset recovery, and environmentally-responsible electronic waste disposal to the Providence, RI area and technological renew-ability to the world.In order to truly fulfill our commitments to people and the environment, Green Penguin was founded on a set of principles:Sustainability should not come at the expense of those seeking to environmentally dispose of electronic waste. Doing the right thing should not mean financial martyrdom. We will make data destruction and hardware disposal work for you.

Our proprietary inventory management, testing, and data destruction practices can significantly reduce turnaround time for your project. We pass our savings right back to you.Green Penguin did not expect to be funded through tax dollars or generous benefactors. What we needed to create was something that funded itself.As we grow, we continue to develop our existing electronic waste management processes, create new and environmentally friendly company processes, and explore new technical processes for data destruction and e-waste management.It is time that everyone is enabled to do their part in environmental stewardship. Green Penguin is and will continue to be the enabler.

Computer Recycling and Removal

We turn the nightmare of proper data destruction, electronic waste disposal, and asset recovery into a peaceful dream.
Computers are supposed to make your business more efficient, processes more affordable and your job easier. When they’ve reached the end of their useful life with your company, they can turn into a distracting and painful liability. Whether you’re downsizing or upgrading, you’ll want that excess handled with the same care with which you treat your own business.

Without thorough process, disks go unwiped, memory cards go unnoticed, CDs get left in drives and transfer of ownership is often handled improperly. All of the following can lead to enormous headaches down the line:

  • Loss of proprietary or private customer information resulting in losses and lawsuits
  • Improper eWaste disposal leading to fines at any time
  • Improper license transfers leading to expensive software losses

At Green Penguin, we provide custom disposal solutions suiting the specific needs of your business. As a matter of process, we maintain complete “chain of ownership” documentation for each of our customers. We provide certifications of proper electronic waste disposal and certifications of data destruction for each of our business recycling projects, giving you peace of mind to focus on what you do best. In addition, Green Penguin can provide complete solutions for your end-of-life asset-management needs. In keeping it Green, we know that your needs as a business must come first.

On top of freeing up space and alleviating potential headaches, you may be surprised at what we can do in assisting you in reclaiming residual value on your unused hardware. While no longer suiting your IT needs, used hardware often retains value that a company with our expertise can reclaim and return to your operation.

Whether you have four or four hundred PCs, a small office or an entire data center, Green Penguin is ready with the experience, knowledge and air-tight process to guarantee your peace of mind. Go ahead and see what the Penguin can do for you — contact us now for a free e-waste management consultation. Don’t worry, we’re not sales people, nobody is on commission. You’ll have a real conversation with a real person about your particular e-waste situation and what can be done with it. You’ll be shocked to learn just how inexpensive (if it costs anything at all) e-waste management can be, we promise.

Bird’s Eye-View

Green Penguin, Inc. was founded a little over two years ago with the goal of addressing the inefficiencies and outright failings of the e-waste management industry. In that time we have, among other things, helped more than 7,000 end-users maintain their existing computer systems, tripled in size, teamed up with Whole Foods for an electronics drive on America Recycles Day, joined forces with ecoRI, and taken on as clients, sole proprietors and Fortune 500 companies alike.

Our services range from simple pick-up/drop-off acceptance to full-site removals with hardware auditing, data wiping, and/or media destruction. While focused on secure data destruction, our goal is to see not only that e-waste is handled safely and appropriately, but that as much as possible, working parts are reused. By focusing on reuse, we are able to tackle the e-waste dilemma on both ends. A significant portion of incoming gear is disassembled and tested, with individual components finding new homes in the hands of end-users (small businesses, schools, hobbyists, non-profits and many others) seeking to maintain older hardware.

In pursuing and sharing our goal of tackling the e-waste problem, we need to team up with people and companies just like you and yours. I am personally very excited about what we are doing here and really hope that we will have the opportunity to team up with you to share in making the world a cleaner, safer and healthier place.

Asset Recovery

Is your company down-sizing or relocating? In those cases, as you’re no doubt aware, there is often a great burden in handling the resulting excess of assets from that transition. Green Penguin can help smooth out that process for you. Our primary focus is always e-waste liability management which functions so well, in part, because we maintain an excellent contact list throughout the industry. We can use this to your company’s advantage.

There are occasions where we can do more for your company than just take a liability and space-waster off your hands; sometimes, Green Penguin can offer you a return on unneeded hardware. In these situations, we’ll provide you an appraisal and can, at your discretion, purchase the hardware outright. Another option is while our technology disposition specialists wipe, test, inventory and remove all identifying corporate data (serial numbers, corporate tags, and other ownership identifiers), our sales force will use our extensive list of contacts, including brand and hardware-type specific buyers and brokers – in addition to our traditional retail sales channels – to find buyers for your product. We want to provide you with the best return in the shortest time possible. Either way, we can guarantee a far better return on what likely used to be the biggest headache that you’ve have ever imagined possible.

Electronic Scrap Purchasing

Two of our most important roles here at Green Penguin, Inc. are those of parts remanufacturer and electronics recycler.If you own a combined 10 or more laptops, desktop computers, and/or computer/television LCD screens, we can help you make some Green from your extra stuff. Green Penguin pays competitive prices on all bulk electronics.

If you own a computer store or scrap business (even a small one), you’ve just found a way to quickly turn electronic waste into cold hard cash! We pay out more than any of the local scrap yards have offered us for your scrap electronics. We purchase both by the pound and by the unit (depending upon the type of item and volume). Appointments are available 11AM to 6PM, M-F and at other times by appointment. Pick-ups for large-volume scrap are available in most areas. Contact us for for pricing or to schedule an appointment — by clicking “Contact” or by phone at 401-PENGUIN (736-4846).
