Corporate Frequently Asked Questions

We adhere to e-Stewards Certification standards that prohibit us from exporting electronics for processing.  All scrap electronics are processed by CompuCycle in our state of the art, fully automated shredding plant.

Electronics that cannot be refurbished or resold are shredded into raw materials (steel, copper, aluminum, plastics, and circuit boards) and shipped directly to smelters, refineries and mills, reducing the need for raw material extraction and minimizing waste.

CompuCycle helps corporations achieve their sustainability goals by offering end-to-end recycling solutions that reduce electronic waste, minimize carbon footprints, and promote the reuse of valuable materials. Our services align with ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) initiatives, making it easier for companies to meet their environmental objectives.

CompuCycle is proud to be part of the top 1% of recycling companies in the U.S. that processes IT assets in-house, providing an unmatched level of control and accountability. Unlike many others who simply sort and send assets downstream, CompuCycle ensures the highest standards of environmental sustainability by directly managing the entire recycling process. Our certified procedures prevent harmful materials from entering the environment, and our employees are rigorously trained in responsible recycling practices. By adhering to industry-leading safety standards and environmental regulations, we guarantee that e-waste is handled safely and sustainably for our clients.

Yes, CompuCycle is the first and only electronic recycler to process e-plastics for domestic reuse. Recycling e-plastics reduces the demand for virgin plastic production, conserves energy, and lowers greenhouse gas emissions. It also helps keep plastics out of landfills and oceans, contributing to a cleaner and more sustainable environment.
