Mobile e-waste pickup, professional data recovery, and certified hard drive destruction — all handled locally, with a certificate and your peace of mind.
Retro Data Recovery is a locally owned and operated service based in La Porte, Indiana. We started because we saw a real gap — most people have no idea what to do with old electronics, and even fewer know how much personal data is sitting on the drives inside them.
We come to you. We handle the heavy lifting. And we make sure every device is either safely recycled, every file is recovered, or every drive is destroyed beyond recovery — with documentation to prove it.
Our drive destruction meets the federal standard used by government agencies and healthcare providers. You get a signed Certificate of Destruction with every wipe or shred.
Every device we collect goes to a certified municipal recycling facility. Nothing we pick up ends up in a dumpster or landfill — ever.
Most people have a pile of old electronics collecting dust — and zero plan for them. We come to you, handle everything, and make sure nothing ends up in a landfill or leaking your personal data.
