How Server Recycling Works and What Happens Next

From collection to material recovery, Dream E-Waste handles retired servers and workstations through a responsible electronics recycling process designed to protect data and recover valuable materials.

Bring your servers and workstations to our Point Loma recycling facility or arrange a free business e-waste pickup across San Diego County. We assess the equipment and coordinate intake before processing begins.

Storage devices can contain confidential business records, customer information and system credentials. We process equipment according to applicable data destruction requirements to help protect sensitive information before materials enter the recycling stream.

Before an appliance is processed, components that require special handling are removed. This can include compressor oil, capacitors, mercury switches, batteries and other materials that should not enter the shredder.

We assess retired servers and IT hardware for potential reuse or further processing, depending on their condition and applicable requirements.

We dismantle equipment as appropriate and separate components such as circuit boards, metal housings, power supplies, cables and storage devices for proper handling.

We direct recovered materials to appropriate downstream recycling processes, supporting material recovery and reducing the amount of electronic waste sent to landfills.
