When businesses upgrade infrastructure, move to cloud systems or close sites, they are often left with large volumes of redundant server equipment. Removing this safely and correctly is essential for both compliance and data security.
We provide server room recycling and decommissioning services across London, East London, Essex and Kent, helping businesses remove and recycle IT infrastructure efficiently. Operating from our yard in Rainham RM13, we manage the full process from disconnection through to compliant recycling.
Whether you are clearing a small server setup or decommissioning a full data room, we ensure everything is handled securely and with full traceability.
Server room recycling is the controlled removal and disposal of IT infrastructure, including servers, storage systems and associated hardware.
This process ensures that all equipment is handled safely, recycled through authorised facilities and documented correctly. It also helps protect your organisation from environmental risks and potential data breaches.
Where required, this service can be combined with hard drive shredding, IT recycling and WEEE recycling, giving you a complete end-of-life solution for IT assets.
We handle all types of equipment commonly found in server rooms and IT environments.
This includes rack-mounted servers, tower servers and storage arrays such as NAS and SAN systems. We also remove networking equipment including switches, routers and firewalls.
Power systems such as UPS units and PDUs are included, along with server racks, cabinets and structured cabling.
Cooling equipment can also be removed where required, subject to compliance and handling requirements.
All equipment is handled regardless of condition, whether operational, outdated or decommissioned.
We support a wide range of organisations that require safe and compliant IT disposal.
This includes data centres, IT service providers, corporate offices, schools and universities, government departments and multi-site businesses.

Server equipment contains valuable materials as well as components that require specialist handling.
Recycling server infrastructure correctly helps your business:
Handling these assets correctly is essential for both environmental and legal reasons.
We follow a structured approach to ensure safety, efficiency and compliance.
We begin by assessing the equipment and planning the removal process. Hardware is then carefully disconnected and dismantled by our team.
All items are logged and securely transported from site. Equipment is processed through authorised recycling facilities, with reusable materials recovered where possible.
We provide full documentation, including duty-of-care paperwork and recycling records, giving you complete transparency.
If your business requires server room recycling or decommissioning, we can arrange a site visit and provide a clear quotation.
