dispositioning for asegurar la disponibilidad de

Explanation:
The sense of the English here is "assuring the proper placement and availability of," and it seems that this phrasing reflects both of these elements more clearly than "disponer" by itself.

More than 3.7 million Yahoo hits for "asegurar la disponibilidad de."

Suerte.

Per Adriana's pertinent comment:

My suggestion would work for the first instance only. I think that "disponer de" would have to be used for "dispositioning of" pets, animals, etc. since, in these cases, the reference is likely not to "availability for future use or reclaiming."
