Education Electronics Recycling

FERPA-compliant electronics recycling for K-12 schools, colleges, and universities. Free pickup. Budget-friendly.

Student Data Protection Is Your Responsibility

Schools and universities store vast amounts of student personally identifiable information (PII) — names, grades, disciplinary records, health information, special education records, and family data. Under FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act), institutions that fail to properly protect this data face loss of federal funding and legal liability.

The Greater Houston area is home to some of Texas's largest school districts — Houston ISD (187,000+ students), Fort Bend ISD (79,000+), Katy ISD (90,000+), and Cypress-Fairbanks ISD (117,000+). Each district cycles through thousands of Chromebooks, laptops, and desktops every few years. All of these devices contain student data that must be securely destroyed.

EverTrade makes it easy and free. We pick up your retired devices at no charge, securely destroy all data, and provide the documentation your district needs for FERPA compliance — all within your budget constraints.

"We had 2,000 end-of-life Chromebooks taking up an entire storage room. EverTrade picked them all up for free and gave us certificates showing every serial number was wiped. Our technology director was thrilled."
