Our Detailed Recycling Process

How we ensure your electronics are recycled responsibly

1. Collection & Sorting

When you drop off your electronics at our Charlotte location, we carefully sort them by type and condition. Some devices may be refurbished, while others will be disassembled for parts and materials.

  • Initial assessment of device condition
  • Categorization by device type and recyclability
  • Identification of potentially reusable components

2. Data Destruction

For devices with storage capabilities, we perform secure data destruction to ensure your personal information remains protected. This includes wiping hard drives, SSDs, and mobile device storage.

  • DoD-compliant data wiping for storage devices
  • Physical destruction of non-reusable storage media
  • Certificate of destruction available upon request

3. Disassembly & Material Separation

Our technicians carefully disassemble devices to separate different materials: plastics, metals, circuit boards, batteries, and more. This ensures each material can be properly processed.

  • Manual disassembly by trained technicians
  • Separation of valuable materials for recovery
  • Safe handling of hazardous components

4. Responsible Processing

We partner with certified recycling facilities that adhere to strict environmental standards. These facilities process the materials to recover valuable resources and safely dispose of hazardous components.
