Rancho Cordova grew up around back-office operations — large insurance and financial-services campuses that employ thousands of people who never touch a customer face-to-face but generate enormous volumes of retired laptops, monitors, and server hardware every year. A growing cluster of tech tenants has added even more IT equipment turnover to that base. When one of these campuses refreshes a floor of workstations or retires a server room, they need a recycler that can document every serial number, not just haul equipment away.
Desktops, laptops, servers, networking switches and racks, UPS battery systems, monitors, printers and copiers, and hard drives with certified destruction on-site or at our facility. Large-volume pickups are scheduled around your operations, not the other way around.
Rancho Cordova and our Pell Circle facility are both in Sacramento County, so equipment doesn't travel far between your floor and the shredder. The program itself is our standard six steps. We set up collection equipment for the refresh, train the staff who stage it, and run the pickup ourselves. Serial numbers are recorded when your audit team needs them, drives are wiped or destroyed during processing, and certificates and reports land in the client portal. Server rooms follow the same path through our data center decommissioning service.
No. California's universal waste rules keep TVs, computers, monitors and batteries out of household and business trash. We don't offer residential service ourselves, so Rancho Cordova residents can take their own electronics to Secure Recycle, our sister company for consumers, which operates from our Sacramento address at 3921 Pell Circle.
Every pickup runs under our ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 certifications, with full chain-of-custody documentation from the moment equipment leaves your floor to final disposition — the audit trail corporate compliance teams expect.
Request a quote and tell us the scope — a single server room or a full-floor refresh. We also serve nearby Folsom, Elk Grove, 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!
