Kentucky Shredding offers many different programs for all your electronics recycling needs.

Some examples of the types of electronics we recycle are computers and all I.T. equipment as well as industrial, research, robotics, scientific equipment. Here is a more complete list of what we recycle.

Initial Contact & Evaluation

One of our account specialists will evaluate the types of items you have for recycling along with any data that needs to be destroyed. We will schedule an appointment that is convenient for you and arrange all manpower and logistics. You may also drop off your electronics at our warehouse near downtown Lexington.

Free Pickup

A team of specialists will come to your location at the scheduled time to remove your equipment. We work efficiently and discreetly to minimize any disruptions to your business. We provide all the labor, equipment and transportation necessary to make this a hassle free process.

Processing, Recycling & Data Destruction

Once your equipment has been brought back to our secure facility, it will be sorted and weighed. From here the process will be different depending on the condition, age and type of equipment.

A vast majority of the equipment we receive is old, outdated or has reached the end of life. This type of equipment will be dismantled, the components will be sorted and will then be sent directly to a metal recovery facility. No components or data will be recovered and everything will be destroyed.

For those customers that prefer to have their working electronics refurbished we have a value recovery option that involves testing, evaluation and product remarketing. Reuse and refurbishment is the most environmentally friendly while also offering the highest return on your investment. We also provide parts recovery to customers that need to have certain components preserved.
