COMPUTERS FOR YOUTH:

ITX is the drop location for the Bulkley Valley's Community Website (www.wowtown.ca) Computers for Youth program. Through this program we provide free mentoring and training to youth ages 16 to 24. Under the guidance of our expert IT staff, youth will learn fundamentals of computer servicing while at the same time giving back to the community. Fully refurbished computers from the program will be donated back into the community. The target recipients for these computers will be underprivileged youth, however anyone in need of a computer is eligible.

FREE PICKUP:

ITX is a strong supporter of helping our community and protecting our environment. We offer FREE pickup services from Houston to The Hazeltons and all points between. We willl schedule pickup of unwanted computers and related parts. This includes such things as computers, monitors, screens, hard drives, disk drives, keyboards, mice, printers, cables, memory, servers, network components, routers, modems and any other external devices and components.

Ideally, each item will be clearly tagged as to it's condition (working / not working). Non-refurbishable items will be taken to the Smithers Recycling Depot for proper disposal through their recycling program.

Please email us with with full description of equipment and quantity you wish to have picked up.

Equipment can also be dropped off at our location. A designated spot is available for placing drop-off items.

Computers that have been stripped down or destroyed can be delivered free directly to the Smithers Bottle Recycling Depot. Please do not put any computer or electronic parts in the garbage. These items contain recyclable metals as well as toxins that are harmful to our environment.

FREE DRIVE DATA WIPING / SECURE DATA REMOVAL:

ITX also offers secure data wiping services to PERMANENTLY remove the data from your computer. Computers usually contain private and/or sensitive data, even if the hard drive has been completely deleted. All computers dropped off for the Computers for Youth program will receive professional secure data wiping at NO CHARGE. This ensures that there is absolutely no chance of your data files being recovered from the computers we refurbish. ITX normally charges $10 per drive for this service and recommends it for any computer prior to disposal, resale or refurbishing. This is our effort to avoid unnecessary destruction and improper disposal of computers and hard drives.
