Services

Services we provide.

Circular ITAD that keeps storage safely in service, certified data sanitization, and white-glove data center services — performed on-site or worldwide, from a single drive to a full data center. Every device is serialized and backed by a certificate you can take to audit, with a chain of custody that's never broken. And when destruction is necessary, our certified shredding is here too.

Mobile

Mobile Hard Drive Shredding

Silicon Valley's original mobile shredding truck comes directly to you for fast, reliable, certified destruction. Watch your drives reduced to compliant particle size on-site — no chain-of-custody gaps, no waiting.

HDDs, SSDs, tapes, and loose media
Witnessed destruction you can watch happen
Unbroken chain of custody from pickup to shred
Responsible recycling of shredded material

Schedule a shred

We destroy data on every data-bearing device.

SSDs are handled differently from hard drives — solid-state media requires purpose-built destruction methods, which we apply to ensure data is unrecoverable.

HDD

Hard Drives

Spinning disks of any capacity, shredded or sanitized to standard.

Shred · Degauss

SSD

Solid State Drives

Step 02

On-site arrival

Our mobile truck and Data Slayer team arrive on your schedule.

Step 03

Witnessed destruction

Media is shredded or sanitized to standard — watch it happen.

Step 04

Certificate issued

Receive your serialized certificate of destruction.

Sanitize

Secure Sanitization for Reuse

Certified data erasure that makes devices safe to keep in service — verified, documented, and audit-ready.

Reuse

Redeployment & Reuse

Sanitized hardware goes back into service — redeployed across your fleet or kept in circulation, extending its life instead of sending it to landfill.

Corporate laptops & endpoints

Recycle

Responsible Recycling

Whatever can't be reused is recycled responsibly to R2v3 standards. End-of-life hardware is recycled through vetted, audited downstream partners.

R2v3 responsible recycling
Audited downstream chain
No landfill, no export dumping

Recycle responsibly

002The loop

One secure loop: sanitize, reuse, recycle.

Every device follows the highest, longest-life path it safely can. Data is eliminated first; hardware is reused, redeployed, or recycled second — nothing wasted, nothing exposed.

Step 01

Sanitize

Certified NIST 800-88 erasure makes each device safe to reuse — with a certificate of sanitization.

Step 02

Reuse

Sanitized, audit-ready hardware is cleared to go back into service safely.

Step 03

Redeploy

Devices are redeployed across your fleet or kept in circulation for a second life.

Step 04

Recycle

Whatever can't be reused is recycled responsibly to R2v3 standards.

RISK

Risks we minimize.

Relocating, decommissioning, restoring, or moving a data center or office without the right expertise exposes you to serious, avoidable risk. Partner with Data Slayer to minimize:

✕
Operational downtime & disruption
Poor sequencing, or changes pushed to production without testing, can take you offline and stall the business.
✕
Loss of critical data
IT assets are especially vulnerable in transit and during teardown.
✕
Security vulnerabilities
Gaps in oversight and unaccounted-for hardware open the door to breaches.
✕
Regulatory violations
Mishandling data or storage equipment can break strict data-privacy laws — risking severe fines, lost customers, and reputational damage.
✕
Lost track of assets
Without serialized tracking and documentation, it's hard to know what's been decommissioned versus what's still in use.

When performed professionally, data center decommissioning, relocation, and restoration are virtually risk-free — but that requires careful planning and the extensive experience of a specialized ITAD and data-management provider. It's not the kind of job you want to tackle without due expertise.

WHY DATA SLAYER

Every drive accounted for. Every standard met.

From your floor to final destruction, restoration, or relocation, we combine deep, hands-on ITAD experience, airtight compliance, and full chain-of-custody tracking — without a single drive left to chance.

NAID AAA Certified & Compliant

We meet the most stringent standards — IEEE 2883-2022, NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1 & 2, NSA Media Destruction, DoD 5220.22-M, HIPAA, and R2v3.

Chain of Custody, Always

Serialized tracking follows every asset from your floor to its final destination or destruction — so you always know exactly where your data is.

Circular Reuse

We keep reusable hardware in service through certified sanitization and redeployment — cutting e-waste and helping you get the most life out of every asset.

Zero Landfill Goal

We're committed to a zero-landfill goal — diverting every asset toward reuse, value recovery, and certified recycling so nothing usable is ever thrown away.

Sustainable Disposition

R2v3 recycling and proud Circular Drive Initiative membership mean nothing goes to landfill — responsible disposal, every time.

2017

Built on Real-World Experience

Founded in 2017, building on hands-on industry experience dating back to 2002 — fully insured and globally trusted.

OUR METHODS

Our sanitization and destruction methods

Protect your data, your customers, and your future with guaranteed, certified and secure data sanitization and destruction solutions from Data Slayer.

METHOD 01

Software-Based & Cryptographic Erasure

Using certified data erasure platforms, we securely sanitize functioning storage through industry-approved overwrite and cryptographic erase methods. HDDs may be sanitized by overwrite; SEDs, SSDs, and NVMe devices use cryptographic erase to destroy encryption keys, rendering all stored data permanently inaccessible.

METHOD 02

Physical Destruction

When reuse isn't required, media is damaged, sanitization has failed, or destruction is mandated by policy, contract, or regulation, we perform physical destruction through industrial shredding aligned with applicable industry and government guidelines — including NSA media destruction requirements where applicable.

METHOD 03

Degaussing

For magnetic media, degaussing uses a powerful magnetic field to eliminate stored data by disrupting the media's magnetic structure, rendering the information unrecoverable.
