Citrus Heights built its identity around a dense strip of independent retail and service businesses along Greenback Lane and Sunrise Boulevard, tucked between some of the older residential neighborhoods in the greater Sacramento area. Our work here is pickups for businesses like a print shop retiring a fleet of copiers. The households in those neighborhoods are served by our sister company, Secure Recycle, at the same Sacramento address.
Desktops, laptops, monitors, printers and copiers, TVs, routers and networking gear, all battery types, and hard drives with certified on-site shredding available. Phone systems, UPS backups, audio and video equipment and battery-embedded devices are accepted too. If it's electronic and done working, businesses can schedule a pickup. For computer recycling, Citrus Heights offices book a pickup so each drive is logged. We don't provide residential services, so residents with old computers can use Secure Recycle instead.
For a business, at our Sacramento facility through a scheduled pickup. We take heavy CRT sets that have sat in a storeroom for years as well as flat screens that stopped working. Both go to our TV and monitor recycling stream, where the leaded glass in tube sets and the backlight lamps in older flat panels are handled separately. Households with an old TV can take it to Secure Recycle, our sister company at 3921 Pell Circle in Sacramento. We don't pick up from homes.
No. TVs, computers and batteries are universal waste in California and aren't allowed in household trash or bulky-item piles headed for landfill. For a business, the same rule applies to the dumpster behind the store.
For retailers and offices, a pickup follows six steps: we supply containers, train your staff, send our own crew for the pickup, track the load under a ticket number, process it at our facility with reuse first, and close it with reports and certificates. Every item processed through Citrus Heights routes falls under our ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 certifications, giving small business owners the same documented compliance larger clients get.
Businesses can request a quote for pickup. Households can use Secure Recycle at the same Sacramento address. We're also nearby for Antelope, Orangevale, and Carmichael.
No obligation. We respond same business day.

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.
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!
Thank You Gretchen! We are happy to make a difference.
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.
We truly appreciate your generous review! 😊 It's fantastic to know our team was able to assist you with your hard drive destruction needs efficiently. We are so glad to hear you had a pleasing experience with us. Our door is always open for all your future recycling needs!
