Business Electronics Recycling, ITAD & Data Destruction in Ottawa

USACA Group serves businesses, institutions and IT teams across Ottawa and Gatineau with corporate electronics recycling, IT asset disposition, data destruction and value recovery. Ottawa is a service area, not a USACA facility: equipment is collected under chain of custody and processed at USACA facilities, with drives destroyed there and every device documented.

How projects run in Ottawa

Service area. USACA provides services to qualifying commercial projects in Ottawa. Equipment is collected from your location and processed at USACA facilities.

This page is for organizations — companies, technology firms, institutions, contractors and IT service providers — retiring equipment in business quantities. It is not a household drop-off service; residents looking to recycle a single home device should use municipal and retail drop-off programs.

Ottawa's technology sector, including the Kanata North technology park, and its concentration of institutions and professional offices generate regular laptop and desktop refreshes, server-room retirements and office moves — the situations where serialized records and secure data destruction matter.

Because Ottawa work is scheduled from USACA's Eastern Canada program, collections are planned in advance and consolidated where possible. Tell us your timeline early and we will confirm what is realistic.

Eastern Ontario beyond the capital — Kingston, Cornwall, Brockville, Pembroke and Arnprior — is served on the same scheduled program. Federal contractors, defence-technology firms and institutions in the region often require serial-level destruction records, which USACA provides with every Certificate of Destruction.

Kanata North's telecommunications and networking heritage means Ottawa retirements frequently include switches, routers, optical gear and test equipment that may carry resale value. Request an equipment valuation before recycling.

Sealed custody for data-bearing devices

Drives and data-bearing equipment are sealed before leaving your site, with seal numbers recorded on the manifest.

Recent laptops, servers and network equipment can be evaluated for resale; offers depend on model, quantity, age, condition and demand.
