ERASURE SERVICES Basic Erasure is performed at Eco-Tech using GParted for fast and effective data removal. On-Site Advanced Erasure is performed at the client's home or office using a single-pass zero-fill overwrite with the dd CLI command. A full disk overwrite can take several hours, typically around 2.5 hours for a 1TB 5400 RPM hard drive. The device must power on and be in proper working condition. Basic Erasure may be supervised at Eco-Tech. For On-Site Advanced Erasure, Eco-Tech staff initiate the overwrite process, but the client is responsible for taking a photo of the completed process and sending it to Eco-Tech to confirm successful erasure. PRICING Basic Erasure — CA$20.50 per device On-Site Advanced Erasure — CA$140.50 per device Additional On-Site Advanced Erasure — CA$20.50 per additional computer IN-PERSON PAYMENT SAVINGS Save CA$0.50 per unit when you pay in person at Eco-Tech Waterloo. Volume discounts are available for multiple devices. This service provides a reliable, non-invasive way to securely erase Apple devices while supporting responsible electronics recycling.
Cancellation Policy
Eco-Tech requires payment details to be collected upfront for all booking services to secure appointments due to increased no-shows, which disrupt operations by preventing the allocation of dedicated service time. Payment details are only used to charge in the event of a no-show or failure to attend a scheduled appointment. If the client attends their booking, no payment is processed through the booking system, and payment is collected in-store at the time of service completion. For all bookings, clients are required to provide at least 48 hours’ notice for any cancellation or rescheduling. Failure to provide adequate notice, including no-shows, may result in a $20 cancellation fee only. The full service fee will not be charged in cases of no-show or late cancellation. This policy is intended to support efficient scheduling and fair allocation of service time. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us provide consistent and quality service.
