Sims Recycling Solutions is located in West Chicago, Illinois and is part of the largest electronics and metals recycling corporation in the world. Sims provides some repair and sales of refurbished computers, but deconstructs and recycles many thousands of tons of electronics each year using a mechanized sorting and separating system.

Sims Recycling Solutions provides complete protection of data for equipment that is remarketed as well as that which is recycled. Items with reuse potential are cleansed following the guidelines detailed by the US Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology in Special Publication 800-88 - Guidelines for Media Sanitization. Hard drives and the data on them that are not suitable for reuse, either because of client request or technology/functionality traits, are destroyed via shredding, as recommended in the US Department of Defense Manual 5220.22-M, National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual.
