Secure data destruction
Sensitive commercial business data is stored on computer hard disks, CD and DVD Roms, USB and solid state storage devices.
Data cannot be formatted as the data is still present, just the references have changed.
1800RECYCLE® are secure data destruction experts in wiping using DoD methods or NSA methods such as magnetic degaussing that completely sanitises data.

These are the methods that 1800RECYCLE uses for secure data destruction in Melbourne.
Hard disk - 3 Pass DoD 5220.22-M wipe
Writes 1's & 0's in a random pattern three times. The minimum industry standard. Hard disks can be reused, reformatted or recycled. Suitable for computers that need to be reused, redeployed or decommissioned.
Hard disk - 7 Pass DoD 5220.22-M wipe
Writes 1's & 0's in a random pattern seven times. The minimum industry standard. Hard disks can be reused, reformatted or recycled. Suitable for computers that need to be reused, redeployed or decommissioned.
Hard disk degaussing
Degaussing is the highest level of data destruction and sanitising achievable for hard disks. Degaussing is the only approved method of data destruction used by DOD, NSA, United States and Australian militaries.
CD/DVD media shredding
CD/DVD is granulated into rice size plastic pellets. Data recovery is impossible as media is passed through a system of removing readable layers.
Solid state data destruction
Solid state devices such as solid state hard disks, USB memory sticks and memory cards are shredded and granulated into small 2mm pieces.
