S3 Recycling Solutions to introduce a second shift at recycling facility

S3 Recycling Solutions, a full-service technology recycling firm in Springfield, Tennessee, is launching a second shift at its 75,000-square-foot electronics recycling facility in Springfield. The additional operating hours are expected to add 15 jobs to the facility over the next 12 months. 

S3 says it will begin accepting applications immediately for sorters, freight handlers and data entry technicians. The second shift is expected to be fully operational in early 2022. 

“With the recent uptick in hacks and data security breaches, many companies are putting more emphasis on physical destruction of hard drives and data wiping,” says Rod McDaniel, S3’s CEO. “A second shift will allow us to process an additional 20,000 devices every month.” 

The company says increased demand for e-scrap solutions is driving the expansion. Information technology equipment management and data-bearing device security are becoming critical business components.
