San Antonio Data Center Recycling
R2v3-certified data center recycling in greater San Antonio, zero-landfill and fully audited, from a single rack to a full facility. While most ITADs broker your equipment downstream, we dismantle in-house and ship direct to the refiner, delivering 3x the carbon savings of a standard ITAD with verified mass-balance data for your sustainability team.
ROC Telecom delivers certified data center recycling in San Antonio, our home market and the base for our statewide Texas coverage. As one of the country’s most active markets for cloud, defense, and enterprise data centers, concentrated in the Westover Hills corridor on the west side, the metro generates a constant stream of retired hardware that has to be dispositioned securely and sustainably, not just hauled to a shredder. We provide zero-landfill processing for clients of every size across greater San Antonio, from growing firms to enterprise and hyperscale facilities. Headquartered here in San Antonio, we treat recycling as a secure, audited material-recovery operation rather than a logistics task, with your data and your ESG reporting protected at every step.
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 because our processing facility is here in San Antonio, that chain starts and ends in the same metro. Our certified teams collect from facilities throughout the Westover Hills corridor where most of the city’s data center capacity is concentrated, plus downtown, Schertz, Selma, Universal City, New Braunfels, and Boerne.

Why work with us?
For operators recycling retired hardware across San Antonio, 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 San Antonio footprint means secure, white-glove pickup across the metro, with one accountable chain of custody from your cage to the refiner.

San Antonio DataCenter Recycling FAQ
We pick up across the full metro: the Westover Hills corridor, downtown, Schertz, Selma, Universal City, New Braunfels, Boerne, and the surrounding enterprise and hyperscale corridors. We provide secure pickup with full chain of custody and no geographic restriction inside the metro.
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.
