Recover value and responsibly dispose of devices you're no longer using. Our IT Asset Disposition program enables proper device wiping, removal and recycling services. Since 2022, ITAD's impact has only grown, with 38,524 devices processed from CDW customers, and 214,265 pounds of e-waste diverted from landfills and illegal export.
