Woodland serves as the seat of Yolo County government, which means a steady flow of public-records hard drives and office equipment turnover from county departments, alongside the agricultural processing companies and equipment dealers that have anchored the local economy for generations. A well-preserved historic downtown rounds out a city that's equal parts government center and farm town.
Desktops, laptops, servers, networking equipment, monitors, printers, all battery chemistries, and hard drives with certified, documented destruction for public-records compliance. Downtown shops add point-of-sale systems, and ag businesses often send phones and tablets used in the field.
County departments usually want to know where the records come from, so here's the order. Our crew makes the pickup after we've set up collection equipment and trained staff. Tracking gives each load a ticket number, with drive serial numbers recorded when you ask. Processing at our Sacramento facility, a short drive away, wipes or destroys every drive before reuse or recycling. The certificate and report that close the job are what goes in the public-records file.
No. California's universal waste rules keep TVs, computers and batteries out of household garbage. Pickups are for businesses and public agencies; we don't provide residential services. Woodland households can recycle electronics through our sister company, Secure Recycle, at the same Sacramento address, 3921 Pell Circle.
County and business pickups in Woodland are processed under our ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 certifications, with the audit trail public agencies and agricultural businesses both rely on.

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.
