- Control-room and SCADA monitors, workstations and networking equipment
- Field devices: handheld meter-reading units, data loggers and test equipment
- Decommissioned meters and metering infrastructure
- Backup-power and UPS batteries from substations and facility sites
Field and control-room equipment is often retired in batches tied to a system upgrade or a meter-replacement program, rather than a single cleanout.
Control-room workstations and field devices can hold operational and customer data. We wipe drives to NIST 800-88 or destroy them and document the result by serial number.
Lead-acid and other backup-power batteries from substations and facility sites are collected and recycled through our battery recycling service, sorted by chemistry and documented separately.
We can plan a larger pickup around a control-system upgrade or a meter-replacement rollout, with the same documented process at every site for multi-location operators.
Utilities and energy companies retire field, control-room and backup-power equipment on a replacement schedule set by grid and regulatory requirements. We handle the electronics and battery streams that come off that schedule.
Simplify your compliance and disposal process with bundled recycling services that handle both electronic devices and batteries in one streamlined solution.
Our scheduled, route-based pickups cover all major regions of California—ensuring efficient, on-time service no matter where you operate.
We provide clearly labeled, tamper-resistant containers to ensure safe and compliant collection of electronic waste and batteries at your location.
Modern Waste Solutions has served businesses and communities across California with dependable, environmentally responsible recycling solutions for over two decades.
Reviews
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.
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.
Aaron and Vincent were awesome, excellent customer service!
Great guys, excellent customer service, highly recommend!
Polite, quick and easy.

He offered so much even though he was limited on time he went out of his way and he’s over beyond best guy I ever met thank you so much for your service services Dan ITG.
