R2v3 Certified Equipment Recycling
Why work with us?
Headquartered in San Antonio, ROC Telecom is one of a vanishingly small number of ITAD partners that handles decommissioning, asset recovery, and recycling entirely in-house, under a single accountable chain of custody. Most providers broker your equipment downstream through layer after layer of recyclers. We don't. That vertical integration lets us do what most vendors can't: offset the cost of your decom, and on the right volume, deliver it free.
- Decom that pays for itself, with cost offsets that can reach $0.
- 48-hour rapid-response decommissioning mobilization
- 3× the carbon savings of a standard ITAD through in-house dismantling
- Maximum ROI through specialized asset buybacks and direct carrier resale
- R2v3, RIOS, NIST 800-88, and ITAR certified workflows
- Per-project assay reports and serialized Certificates of Destruction
- Single accountable U.S. chain of custody, from cage to certificate

Common questions
ROC Telecom operates as a specialist resale partner with direct global relationships across major carriers, hyperscalers, and Fortune 500 networks. Sourcing end-users directly allows us to offer premium asset valuation that brokered liquidators cannot match, delivered via upfront buybacks or trade-in credits.
We specialize in high-value infrastructure including optical transport (DWDM), telecom-grade systems, and high-density line cards. Beyond full system arrays, we purchase specialized logic boards, processor cards, and SFPs/transceivers. Our expertise covers carrier-grade gear from leading manufacturers like Cisco, Ciena, Arista, Infinera, Fujitsu, Juniper, Calix, and Tellabs, as well as high-performance NVIDIA GPUs.
All data-bearing storage media processed at our R2v3-certified facility undergoes strict physical shredding or certified electronic erasure in complete alignment with NIST 800-88 standards. Every project concludes with an unbroken, serialized chain-of-custody log and official Certificates of Destruction (CoDs) for your permanent security review.
Yes. While Texas-based, we deploy specialized teams across the country to manage the technical de-racking and secure transport of networking stacks. We handle everything from small telecom closets to hyperscale “white-space” environments with white-glove logistics.
As an R2v3 and RIOS certified provider, we manage all material recovery in-house rather than brokering it downstream. We supply verified mass-balance data and on-request refiner assay reports that feed directly into your corporate disclosures for Scope 3 Category 5 and Category 12 emissions reporting.
