Recycling and disposition are not the same service.

Recycling answers where the metal went. Disposition proves what happened to your data, your assets and your books along the way.

The difference shows up in the unit of work. A recycler works in pallets and pounds. Disposition works in serial numbers — what was on the device, how it was sanitized, who did it, where it went, and what came back to you.

R2v3 certification means an auditor has checked that process, not just the intent.

We've been doing it from Eden Prairie since 1998.

If you're scheduling a decommission this quarter, ask what documentation comes with it before you compare prices.

Getting more from your IT budget doesn’t have to mean doing less. It can mean using more than one lever.

1️⃣ Source smarter. Use quality refurbished hardware where new equipment isn’t necessary—like labs, DR sites and cluster expansions.

2️⃣ Extend what works. Keep reliable assets supported longer with third-party maintenance.
EOSL doesn’t necessarily mean the end of an asset’s useful life.

3️⃣ Recover what’s left. Retired equipment may still hold residual value that can be recovered through ITAD.

The result? One lifecycle strategy with more flexibility for your budget.

Tap through to see how each lever can help you get more from your IT spend—then talk to Vibrant about where they fit in your environment.

The same server can come with three very different buying experiences.

Buying new from the OEM may give you the latest generation and factory support. Buying through a broker may get you the lowest upfront price. But neither is automatically the right answer for every requirement.

Vibrant pre-owned hardware sits in a different lane: enterprise equipment that’s tested, warranted, traceable and often available at 50–70% off list.

The right sourcing strategy depends on what matters most for the project—price, lead time, generation, availability, support or risk.

Before you buy, compare more than the part number.

Pick one server you retired this year. Can you say where it is today?

Tap through to follow one from pickup to final report.

Secure ITAD isn't just about what happens to a drive at the end of the process. It's about keeping accountability the whole way through.

From secure pickup and transportation through processing, data sanitization and final reporting, a documented chain of custody tells you where your retired assets are and what happened to them.

Remember: security doesn't stop when you turn off the switch.

Planning an infrastructure refresh? Before you replace everything, take a closer look at what you already have.

Some hosts may have years of useful life left. That storage array might need more capacity—not a replacement. Your switches may be able to stay supported with third-party maintenance. And the equipment you’re retiring? It could still hold residual value.

A smarter refresh strategy can combine:
🔧 Extending the life of reliable equipment
➕ Expanding with refurbished hardware where it makes sense
♻️ Recovering value from assets you’re ready to retire
🔄 Replacing equipment where new technology actually delivers value

Your refresh plan doesn’t have to be all or nothing.

Before you finalize the plan, talk to Vibrant.

Every ITAD vendor says they’re secure, certified, and responsible.

The better question is: Can they prove it?

Choosing an ITAD provider means trusting someone with your data, retired assets, financial records, and environmental obligations. The right questions can quickly reveal the difference between a strong process and strong marketing.

Our latest article covers what to ask about:
🔐 Data sanitization beyond the drives
📋 Serialized reporting and chain of custody
💰 Asset valuation and revenue sharing
✅ R2v3 and other certifications
♻️ Downstream processors and environmental claims
🛡️ Insurance, indemnification and audit rights

A vague answer can be just as informative as a good one. Check out 21 questions to consider asking your ITAD vendor 👉 https://bit.ly/4jgQnw2

What does a month of enterprise hardware shipments look like at Vibrant?

In September, we shipped 5,000+ pieces of hardware to 44 states and 22 countries over just 23 shipping days.

💾 9.1 PB of storage — including 1,718 drives
🧠 60 TB of server memory and 1,254 CPU cores
🖥️ 85 complete systems, configured and tested before shipment

And one delivery we’re especially proud of: when a large enterprise lost a significant share of its compute environment on a Thursday, our team built and tested 16 Cisco UCS blades on Friday and had them delivered Saturday morning — at 85% savings vs. new.

That’s what inventory on the shelf — and the people to configure it — makes possible.

Licensed Dell EMC Unity systems, in stock.

On a lot of secondary-market listings, an array arrives as hardware and nothing else — you supply the OS drives and sort out the software yourself. These are licensed systems with Flare OS drives included, so what lands on your dock is ready to configure.

Every system can be built out. We stock the matching DAEs, SSDs and HDDs, so you can spec capacity with the array now or add it later. Already running a Unity? We carry expansion shelves and drives for systems already in production.

These specific units are sold direct — email [email protected] or send us a message to lock one in. More Dell EMC storage in stock here: https://store.vibrant.com/emc-storage-hardware.aspx

How many retired servers are sitting in a storage room at your company right now?

The system may be offline, but the data isn't necessarily gone. Retired servers, storage and other data-bearing devices create unnecessary exposure when they're stored indefinitely or disposed of without a documented sanitization process.

Vibrant's ITAD process helps organizations securely sanitize or physically destroy data-bearing devices, and document the outcome by serial number.

Security doesn't stop when you turn off the switch.

EOSL is a support milestone—not necessarily a replacement deadline.

When OEM support ends, reliable hardware may still have years of useful life left. Third-party maintenance can keep that equipment supported beyond the OEM timeline, giving your team more control over when—and why—you refresh.

The goal isn’t to keep hardware forever. It’s to refresh when it makes sense for your environment, budget and roadmap.
