Washoe County is anchored by Reno, a full-scale city with a casino and hospitality core downtown, the University of Nevada, Reno, and a fast-growing data center and manufacturing corridor that stretches toward the Tesla Gigafactory. Sparks, its adjoining sister city, is built around warehouse, logistics and distribution-center scale. Between them, the county retires office IT, casino and hotel systems, warehouse scanners and data infrastructure in volume.
- Reno: casinos, the university and the tech and data center corridor.
- Sparks: warehouses, logistics and distribution centers.
Our Northern Nevada route extends east into Lyon County and serves other Washoe County addresses on request.
Businesses can include servers and networking racks, UPS systems, desktops, laptops, monitors and TVs, copiers and printers, phone systems, warehouse-management terminals and scanners, point-of-sale and gaming-floor back-office equipment, all battery chemistries and hard drives. Depending on the load:
- Data center and UPS decommissioning for the Reno corridor's server rooms.
- IT asset disposition for office and hotel refreshes with resale potential.
- Battery recycling for scanner, forklift and backup batteries.
- Secure data destruction with certificates of destruction.
Our own crews drive the Northern Nevada route from our Sacramento facility; we don't subcontract pickups across the state line. Each job follows six steps: containers, training, pickup, tracking under a ticket number, processing at our facility with drives handled first, and certificates and reports. Washoe County pickups run under our ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 certifications.
Pickups are for businesses and agencies only; we don't provide residential services. Our sister company, Secure Recycle, takes household electronics at our Sacramento address, 3921 Pell Circle, which is a long way from Reno. Washoe County residents should check with the county or their local waste provider about options closer to home.
Do you offer recurring pickups in Reno and Sparks?
Yes. We run recurring route-based pickups and on-call pickups, which suits warehouses and hotels with steady equipment turnover.
Can one program cover sites in California and Nevada?
Yes. Multi-state clients can run California and Northern Nevada locations under one account, with reports kept by site in our client portal.
Request a quote with your city, equipment type and volume, and we'll schedule pickup for your Washoe County location.
No obligation. We respond same business day.
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!
