Secure, certified e-waste recycling for Metro Atlanta businesses
Since 2010, Urban Technologies has helped Atlanta businesses retire old technology the right way. Whether it’s a single server closet or a full data center decommission, we handle every project with the same utmost care and attention to detail.
Our electronics recycling services are built for regulated industries. Healthcare, financial services, education, and defense industry clients rely on us to protect sensitive information while meeting environmental goals. As a certified data destruction provider, we hold NAID AAA, e-Stewards, and B Corp certifications.
With us as your partner, you get one partner for the entire life cycle of your IT assets: pickup, data security, resale value recovery, and responsible recycling, all documented from start to finish.
Atlanta electronics recycling covers more than hauling away old computers. Here's how we help retire, replace, and repurpose your IT assets from start to finish.
Our electronics recycling process covers IT asset disposal and asset disposition for every laptop, server, and piece of networking equipment you retire. We tag and track each device with a documented chain of custody, recover valuable resources through eco-friendly recycling, and drive value back to your business through our asset recovery and resale program. Enterprise clients also receive a custom Impact Report quantifying the results.

Our secure data destruction process uses NIST-compliant wiping, degaussing, crushing, and shredding, backed by NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2 standards with verification and a serialized Certification for hard drives. Every job ends with a certificate of destruction, so data security and compliance are never in question.

Through the Duval County Public Schools (DCPS) Laptop Recovery Program, the district has made retired laptops available to students for $50 over the past school year. Thousands of students took advantage of the initiative, putting a strain on county resources. It was then that Urban Technologies stepped in to help.
This kind of community partnership is core to how we operate everywhere we do business, not just where we're headquartered.
Old hard drives don't stop holding sensitive information just because a laptop gets retired. Recycle computers without a certified process, and you're gambling with data-bearing devices that may still contain customer records or protected health information.
For individuals, wiping personal data before recycling a device is a straightforward precaution. But businesses need a more rigorous approach, and our data destruction services provide documented, auditable processes that protect sensitive information and support compliance requirements.
Data Destruction Process
We built our process around one goal: making sure a data breach never happens on our watch.
Every one of your storage devices is processed using NIST-compliant methods, including hard drives, solid-state drives, and any other device capable of holding data.
For hard drives, we go further, pairing NIST-level software wiping with physical destruction so no recoverable data is left behind.
Once your devices are destroyed, you receive a legally binding certificate of destruction, your proof of compliance if regulators or auditors ever come asking.
Have retired computers, servers, or networking hardware taking up space? Our IT equipment buyback turns them into cash or revenue-sharing credit, often with a quote within 24 hours, so your next hardware refresh doesn't have to come out of pocket.
Here's what sets our e-waste recycling apart from a standard hauling service.
