Advanced Skytech Canada has been helping Canadian organizations securely retire, refurbish, and redeploy IT assets for over a decade.
To provide Canadian organizations with the most secure, transparent, and environmentally responsible IT asset disposition and refurbishment services available — protecting their data, recovering their value, and contributing to a circular economy.
A Canada where no IT asset goes to landfill, where every organization can retire technology with confidence, and where the refurbishment of electronics creates measurable social and environmental value.
What Drives Us
Data security is not a feature — it is the foundation of everything we do. Every asset, every process, every employee is held to the highest security standards.
Our commitment to sustainable IT disposition means every device is given a path to reuse, refurbishment, or responsible recycling before any component reaches end-of-life.
Full chain-of-custody documentation, real-time tracking, and comprehensive final reports ensure you always know exactly what happened to every asset.
Our certifications — R2, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and our Microsoft Gold partnership — represent our commitment to continuous improvement in everything we do.
