FERPA Compliant ITAD for
Universities & Schools
A retired lab computer, registrar workstation, or faculty laptop that still holds student education records is a FERPA compliance failure the moment it leaves campus undestroyed. eWaste Solutions provides FERPA compliant IT Asset Disposition with bulk logistics built for campus-wide refresh cycles, serving K-12 districts, colleges, and universities across Massachusetts and New England.
Campus refreshes move hundreds of devices at once.
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act protects student education records, and that protection doesn't end when a device is retired. Registrar systems, financial aid workstations, computer lab machines, and faculty laptops all accumulate student data over their service life. When a district or university refreshes a computer lab or replaces a fleet of laptops, the volume is the real challenge: hundreds of devices need certified destruction and documentation on a timeline that fits an academic calendar, not a slow one-at-a-time process.
