FAQs
How much do I get for my equipment?
Equipment value depends on a variety of factors including age, condition, make/model, market conditions, end-user vs. enterprise, location, etc. Curvature is unique as we can sometimes offer value for equipment that has little to no value in the marketplace but has value to support our maintenance business.
Do I still need to erase to Department of Defense (DoD) 3-pass/7-pass standards?
No, the NIST 800-88 is the new advanced one-pass global standard. Processing time is faster and certificates of erasure provide proper indemnification.
What are my most significant expenses in removal?
The most significant costs for equipment removal are onsite processing and transportation. Some organizations require onsite services, which is fine; however, onsite services cost more and requires secure onsite logistics (e.g., secure areas for processing, packaging, trucks, etc.). The other higher cost factor is transportation. Finding a local vendor who can process and resell is key to minimizing transportation costs.
