R2V3 · RIOS CERTIFIED · ZERO LANDFILL
Data Center Equipment Recycling
Zero-landfill, closed-loop recycling for data center and networking hardware, from a single rack to a full facility. While most ITADs broker your equipment downstream, we dismantle in-house and go direct to the refiner, delivering 3x the carbon savings of a standard ITAD and verified mass-balance data your sustainability team can report.
R2-certified data center equipment recycling experts
ROC Telecom is a Texas-based authority providing certified, zero-landfill recycling to a full range of clients, from growing firms to enterprise and hyperscale facilities nationwide. We move beyond simple disposal, treating recycling as a secure, audited material-recovery operation rather than a logistics task.
What sets us apart is in-house dismantling. Most ITAD companies downstream your equipment to a recycler, who downstreams to another, who finally shreds it. We don’t. We perform physical data destruction, segregate precious metals, and ship direct to the refiner, all under a single accountable U.S. chain of custody and a firm zero-landfill mandate that protects your data and the environment.

Why work with us?
ROC Telecom is a material-recovery partner, not a downstream broker. Standard ITADs hand your equipment through layers of recyclers before anything is shredded. We dismantle in-house, segregate by material, and ship direct to the refiner, delivering more than three times the carbon savings of a standard ITAD with verified mass-balance and on-request assay reports.

Our workflow
Our recycling process is secure, organized, and fully certified. From your first contact to final sign-off, we handle intake, data destruction, material recovery, and compliance reporting, so you can focus on what's next.
Secure intake & manifest
Nationwide secure logistics into our 24/7 surveilled, restricted-access facility, tracked under a serialized chain of custody from pickup through processing.
Certified data destruction
Physical shredding of all data-bearing devices, 100% unrecoverable, under R2v3 secure-destruction protocols, with serialized Certificates of Destruction.
In-house dismantle & recovery
We segregate aluminum, copper, and circuit boards by material type, then ship direct to the refiner, returning precious metals to remanufacturing.
Certificates & reporting
Receive Certificates of Destruction and Recycling, plus verified mass-balance and on-request assay data for your Scope 3 and circular-economy disclosures.
Common questions
No. We operate under a firm zero-landfill mandate. Equipment is dismantled in-house, segregated by material, and routed direct to refiners and certified downstream processors, with verified mass-balance data confirming where every pound went.
Most ITADs broker your equipment through layers of downstream recyclers before it’s shredded. We dismantle in-house, segregate precious metals ourselves, and ship direct to the refiner. That removes the downstream guesswork and delivers more than three times the carbon savings of a standard ITAD.
All data-bearing media is physically shredded inside our 24/7 surveilled, restricted-access facility under R2v3 secure-destruction protocols, in alignment with NIST 800-88. Every project concludes with serialized Certificates of Destruction for your records.
Yes. We recover gold, silver, copper, and palladium and route them to refiners that purify to 99.9%. On request, we deliver a full assay report showing exactly how much of each metal was recovered from your equipment and returned to remanufacturing.
We supply verified mass-balance data and on-request assay reports that feed directly into Scope 3 Category 5 and Category 12 disclosures, giving your sustainability team audited, defensible numbers for the annual report.
Yes. We provide nationwide secure pickup with full chain of custody, from a single rack at a growing firm to full hyperscale facility closures. There’s no geographic restriction and no minimum that locks smaller projects out.
