Ugh, corporate eWaste. I do tech work for a company, and outside of getting verbal approval from someone high enough up to take home two monitors when we acquired another company and we were doing an all hands on deck full replacement of their gear, there's never been a way for me to recycle waste gear for personal use that wouldn't put my employment at risk.
No process for letting employees recycle or reclaim gear. Chuck it in the dedicated bin, once a month a third party recycler comes around, takes it away. Supposedly they wipe or destroy the drives, but no word on what they do with the rest of it. Can't find a damn thing on where/how they resell it, and I've spoken with the person in charge of purchasing and depreciating our hardware. Seen way too much hardware tossed that could go to great use, just not as a desktop anymore.
Like, my own collection of old hardware doesn't have anything in it newer than a decade old, and it's all budget stuff acquired from family.
Meanwhile there's four year old business grade desktops being effectively thrown away that I'm seeing go for $300 used. Just let me build my home network without going broke dammit!
