The North State's Healthcare and Business Hub

Redding is the last major city before California thins into rural mountain counties, and it carries the infrastructure to match. Mercy Medical Center anchors regional healthcare for a service area stretching well past Shasta County's borders, drawing patients — and generating imaging equipment, hospital IT systems, and monitoring devices — from communities where the next major city is genuinely hours away, whether that's south toward Chico or north toward the Oregon border. That remoteness shapes the whole North State economy: downtown offices, light industrial operations, and logistics companies here often serve clients across several counties rather than one, because there's no larger city nearby to split the work with, and equipment that fails or ages out has to be handled locally rather than shipped off to a metro-area vendor. That regional-hub role means Redding sees imaging equipment, hospital IT systems, and business electronics at a scale most North State towns simply don't generate on their own, and it means a recycler has to be equipped to handle both delicate diagnostic hardware and everyday office turnover on the same route.

Who We Serve in Redding
  • Hospitals and clinics: retiring workstations, servers and medical-office electronics, often under HIPAA-driven data destruction requirements.
  • Regional business offices — companies serving clients across the North State who need documented data destruction on retired equipment before it leaves their control.
  • Light industrial and logistics operations — Redding-based businesses supporting the wider region with their own IT, networking, and equipment turnover.
What e-waste qualifies for pickup from Redding?

Desktops, laptops, servers, networking equipment, monitors, printers, phones, all battery chemistries, and hard drives with certified destruction, plus on-site coordination for multi-room hospital or clinic refreshes. North State offices also send UPS units, copiers and phone systems, which ride on the same pickup.

How do e-waste and computer recycling work for Redding businesses and clinics?

Distance is the reason documentation matters here: once equipment leaves Redding, you need a record of everything that happened to it on the way to Sacramento. Our six-step program is built around that record. We place labeled containers, train staff to keep drives and batteries separate, and run the pickup with our own crew. From there the load is tracked by ticket number, with serial-level detail for clinics that need to reconcile patient-data devices, then processed and closed out with certificates and a report.

Can e-waste go in the trash in Redding?

No. California's universal waste rules apply in Shasta County the same as in the cities, so computers, monitors, TVs and batteries stay out of household and business trash. For a clinic, the patient data on a retired drive is a second reason to use a documented recycler.

Redding households aren't part of our service, since we work with businesses. Our sister company, Secure Recycle, handles consumer electronics at our Sacramento location, 3921 Pell Circle, but at that distance a Shasta County collection site listed by CalRecycle will usually be more practical.

Certified, Secure, and Compliant

Redding pickups run through our ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001-certified process, with full chain-of-custody tracking and a certificate of recycling or destruction for healthcare and business compliance records — documentation that matters even more when the nearest alternative vendor is a long drive south.

    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.
