Data Destruction Houston
EverTrade helps Houston businesses destroy data the right way, with NIST 800-88 methods, documented pickup, and a certificate of destruction.

Every destruction job gets paperwork you can hand to compliance, audit, or legal teams.
NIST 800-88
Clear, Purge, and Destroy methods matched to the media and the risk level.
Free Houston Pickup
We make it easy for local businesses to hand off drives without losing a day.
Why Houston teams use EverTrade
Houston organizations deal with dense compliance needs, distributed offices, and a lot of retired hardware. EverTrade gives you one clean process for pickup, sanitization, and proof of destruction. If you only need hard drives handled, start with our hard drive destruction page. If you need full device retirement, this page covers the broader workflow.
NIST 800-88, explained simply
Clear
Overwrite readable media for reuse. Best when the drive is healthy and staying in service.
Purge
Use stronger methods like crypto erase or degaussing when the media is leaving your control.
Destroy
Physically destroy the media when recovery must be off the table.
The key thing is not the buzzword, it is choosing the right method for the device. That is why EverTrade connects NIST 800-88 guidance to real-world workflow, so your records show the decision and the result.
How the process works
1. Intake your inventory
2. Pick the right method
3. Sanitize or destroy the media
4. Deliver the certificate
Need to keep it simple? Use free pickup, let EverTrade handle the chain of custody, and keep the certificate for your records.
