The Challenge
A prominent Midwest school district faced a common dilemma: a mounting surplus of aging, mismatched Chromebooks taking up critical storage space. As they planned a large-scale hardware refresh, the district leadership sought a financially responsible way to dispose of their retired fleet. They didn't just want the devices gone—they wanted to maximize the remaining value of their previous investment to offset the cost of the new technology.
The Solution
The district partnered with CTL to execute a streamlined IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) strategy. By auditing and selling their mixed-model inventory to CTL, the district reclaimed $22,000 in market value.
The Impact
Rather than letting that capital depreciate in a warehouse, the district immediately reinvested the $22,000 toward a new, high-performance fleet of CTL Chromebooks. This "circular" approach created a double-win: the district bridged their funding gap for the new refresh, while CTL refurbished the original devices for resale, providing affordable, high-quality technology to schools and programs with tighter budget constraints.
CHALLENGE
School district staffing levels negatively impacted its capacity
to manage data destruction on thousands of assets scheduled
for decommissioning.
SOLUTION
CTL's ITAD team processed over 14,000 assets, including more than 5,000 laptops, managing all aspects of data destruction and asset auditing for the client. With our Blancco Drive Eraser and Asset Profiler implementation, the client had storage and device level visibility on the wiping and discovery process for each asset,
including certificates of data destruction. In all, CTL's ITAD team delivered over $83,000 of value back to the client.
CTL will consider any type and any brand of IT assets for buyback and disposition.
