Small Business IT & E-Waste Recycling in Sacramento, CA

Right-sized e-waste and data destruction for small offices: computers, phones, routers and batteries, with no warehouse-size minimum.

What a small office typically retires
  • Desktops, laptops, monitors and docking stations
  • Office phones, routers and network switches
  • Printers, scanners and copiers
  • Office batteries, UPS units and old point-of-sale or register hardware

Most of this comes out in small, irregular batches — a desk refresh here, a closed location there — rather than one big cleanout. We work the same way: schedule a pickup when you have a few boxes' worth, not when you've filled a loading dock.

Data on retired computers and phones

Any machine that touched email, accounting software, customer records or payment data needs a wipe or destruction decision before it leaves your office, regardless of company size. We offer both NIST 800-88 wiping for drives headed for reuse and physical destruction for drives that should never be read again, and we document the result by serial number either way.

One pickup, several waste streams

A single visit can cover electronics and office batteries together, through battery recycling, so you're not scheduling separate vendors for each material.

What we recycle

A small office doesn't generate truckloads of waste at once, but computers, phones and batteries still pile up between moves, upgrades and lease turnovers. We size the pickup to what you actually have, without a minimum that only makes sense for a warehouse.

This was our first time working with MWS and they were amazing! Quick response time, efficient, and friendly. Ivan was the team member who was on site for the pickup, and he was great. He worked quickly, is very knowledgeable, and is so kind. It was so easy working with him. We are looking forward to using MWS for our E-waste and Universal waste needs in the future. - Sacramento City College Sustainability

    A little bit off the beaten track in Natomas, but Modern Waste quickly and efficiently helped me recycle my broken Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries at a reasonable $/lb fee (Sac county e-waste will not accept these items). Ramiro and Vincent were very friendly and helpful.

  • Gretchen Langevin

    We had another vendor cancel on us last minute & Modern Waste jumped into action & was able to help us with ewaste & critical document shredding overnight. Team was helpful, professional & got the job done quickly & efficiently. We were able to complete an office move out/shut down in a day with their help! Highly recommend this business!

    Chris was awesome! He came in and picked up all of the e-waste we had ready for him. He was polite and professional throughout the entire process. He handled the equipment with care, including the site equipment that was already in place. I am very happy with his service and appreciate the great job he did.

    I needed hard drives on some old laptops destroyed so any old personal information can't be stolen. The guys there were friendly and helpful and fast. Thanks Pavel and Vincent. Thanks Modern Waste for doing a helpful fast service to us.
