AUSTIN METRO DECOMMISSIONING
Austin Data Center Decommissioning
Data center decommissioning in greater Austin that pays for itself. We clear enterprise and hyperscale facilities across the metro in as little as 48 hours, and the value we recover from your retired hardware can offset the entire cost of the project. R2v3-certified and NIST 800-88 secure, audit-ready across the full decommissioning lifecycle.
Headquartered in San Antonio, ROC Telecom delivers certified data center decommissioning, asset recovery, and zero-landfill recycling across greater Austin, one of the fastest-growing markets in our Texas data center decommissioning coverage. Austin’s growth runs on the semiconductor supply chain, where chip fabrication, design, and the compute that supports them have pulled enterprise and hyperscale capacity into Central Texas faster than almost anywhere in the country. We handle single-row retirement through full hyperscale closure, pairing engineering-led de-racking with technical valuation that turns your retired infrastructure into recovered capital, with zero disruption to active operations.
Decommissioning isn’t just teardown. It’s the secure disposition of everything that leaves your floor: data destroyed to NIST 800-88 at our secure San Antonio facility, resaleable gear recovered to offset your cost, and the rest recycled to zero landfill. Our certified teams mobilize to facilities across the metro, from the MET Center colocation campus in southeast Austin where much of the region’s enterprise capacity sits, to the Silicon Hills corridor, Round Rock, Georgetown, and the Samsung-anchored Taylor build-out, under R2v3-certified protocols and full chain of custody.

Why work with us?
For operators retiring capacity across San Austin, ROC Telecom is a strategic partner for infrastructure retirement, not a disposal vendor. We execute data center decommissioning with surgical precision while recovering the capital trapped in your retired hardware, with the audit-ready visibility to close Austin sites with total confidence. And where traditional vendors charge $20,000 to $30,000 per week, our in-house dismantling and direct resale network routinely offset that cost, sometimes covering the entire project at no cost to you.

Our workflow
Our Austin data center decommissioning process is secure, organized, and fully certified. From first contact to final sign-off, we handle everything: onsite audits, secure logistics, NIST 800-88 data destruction, and zero-landfill compliance, so your team can focus on what's next.
Project valuation & quote
Submit your site specs and hardware manifest. Our specialists analyze the infrastructure and return a value-driven quote based on density and recovery potential.
Technical project roadmap
We run a deep-dive inventory audit to flag high-value optical and networking assets, then plan secure, white-glove logistics for a zero-disruption facility exit.
Surgical de-racking & logistics
Our engineering teams execute the systematic removal of your infrastructure. Every component is logged for chain of custody and tracked to our secure processing hub.
Audit & settlement
You receive serialized Certificates of Destruction and audit-ready compliance reports, while high-value assets settle quickly through our capital recovery program.
Austin Data Center Decommissioning FAQ
We decommission facilities across the full metro. Austin is the heart of Texas’s Silicon Hills and one of the fastest-growing data center markets in North America, driven by the semiconductor and tech expansion around Samsung’s Taylor fab, Dell in Round Rock, and the Central Texas chip supply chain. Our teams cover the MET Center, Round Rock, Georgetown, Hutto, Taylor, Pflugerville, Cedar Park, and San Marcos, with no geographic restriction inside the metro.
Absolutely. We integrate asset recovery directly into every Austin decommissioning project. The market value of your usable networking and server hardware offsets our labor and logistics costs, often turning a teardown into a net-positive return, and on the right volume, covering the project entirely.
Yes. We provide full-facility, slab-to-slab decommissioning across the Austin metro, including low-voltage copper and fiber cable mining, server rack extraction, and containment removal, returning the space to broom-clean lease specifications.
Every Austin project includes full downstream sustainability reporting. We track the exact mass diverted from landfill, provide transparent material recovery metrics, and deliver audited documentation for your Scope 3 Category 5 and Category 12 disclosures.
We mobilize anywhere in the Austin metro in as little as 48 hours. From our San Antonio headquarters we deploy badge-vetted technicians to power down and clear racks on compressed timelines, with no operational downtime to adjacent live rows.
