Electronics Recycling in Fort Worth, TX

E-waste recycling for offices, schools, property managers and households across Fort Worth and Dallas-Fort Worth, with weekday drop-off at our East Bowie Street partner location, commercial pickup within about 100 miles, and mail-in kits.

Old laptops, copiers, and monitors pile up fast in storage rooms and back offices, and Fort Worth's city programs only take a couple of items per household. Recycle Technologies handles business and residential e-waste through our Fort Worth partner location at 101 E Bowie St. It is a partner location, not a facility owned by Recycle Technologies. Bring in desktops, servers, CRT and flat-panel monitors, TVs, printers, phones and cords, drop off hard drives with a certificate available on request, or book a pickup for a full office cleanout.

Have something not on the list? Each item gets looked at individually, so call 817-921-1440 and describe it. Clearing a building at the same time? The same dock also takes batteries, fluorescent lamps and ballasts, with PCB ballasts requiring a manifest.

Getting Equipment Ready

  • Back up and clear devices you aren't sending for hard drive destruction.

  • Coil cords and cables and bag small accessories so nothing tangles in transit.

  • Stack and shrink-wrap desktops and monitors on pallets so they ride flat and stay put.

  • Pull loose batteries where you can do so easily and box them separately.

  • Bag cracked screens to contain glass.

  • More than 5 pallets? Call the operations team before you come.

What Happens After Your Electronics Leave Fort Worth

  1. 1

    Hand-off

    You unload at the partner location dock, our driver collects from your site, or your kit ships out.

  2. 2

    Sorting

    Equipment is grouped by type and stored until processing.

  3. 3

    Dismantling

    Devices are taken apart into their main components.

  4. 4

    Separating materials

    Plastics and wiring move on to shredding, monitors are decontaminated to remove lead, and circuit boards are pulled and sorted.

  5. 5

    Recovery

    Shredded plastic and wire go to molders and smelters, and metals and minerals from circuit boards are recovered for reuse. Mercury-bearing parts are routed to RTI's Greenwood, Indiana facility.

Not every device takes exactly the same path, but the goal stays the same: keep usable material in circulation and out of North Texas landfills. A certificate of recycling is available once the work is done.

Hard Drive Drop-Off

Retired drives from servers, PCs and laptops can be dropped off at the Fort Worth partner location for destruction. Ask when you drop off, and a certificate will be provided. Our hard drive destruction page covers the service in more detail, and phones can go through phone shredding.

Commercial Pickup

IT departments, school districts, medical offices, property management firms, general contractors, and distribution centers near AllianceTexas or DFW Airport can have us collect on-site. Business pickup extends roughly 100 miles from Fort Worth, covering Dallas, Irving, Grand Prairie, Mansfield, Southlake, Colleyville, Bedford, Lewisville, Flower Mound, Granbury and Stephenville.

To price a pickup, tell us:

  • Where: the pickup address and ZIP code

  • What: computers, servers, monitors, TVs, copiers, phones or mixed e-waste

  • How much: unit count, boxes or pallets

  • Drives: whether hard drives need destruction

  • Access: loading dock, freight elevator or ground-floor curbside

  • Timing: one cleanout or recurring service

Mail-In Kits

For a handful of devices, or a branch in Houston, Lubbock or El Paso that sits outside the pickup radius, an electronics recycling kit comes with packaging and prepaid postage. The mail-in recycling program explains which items qualify.

Electronics Recycling for Fort Worth Organizations

  • Property managers and apartment communities

    TVs, microwaves and computers left behind after move-outs can come in by the pallet or go out on a scheduled pickup.

  • Contractors and electricians

    Office remodels and tenant finish-outs turn up old monitors, phones and network switches. Bring them in along with the lamps and ballasts from the same job.

  • Schools and districts

    Device refresh cycles in Fort Worth ISD, Keller ISD, Birdville ISD and other districts leave rooms full of laptops and desktops ready for recycling.

  • Hospitals and clinics

    Medical District offices can pair equipment recycling with hard drive drop-off and a certificate on request.

  • Warehouses and distribution centers

    Facilities along the AllianceTexas corridor and near DFW Airport can clear out scanners, printers and retired PCs on one pickup.

  • Commercial and corporate offices

    Downtown and Cultural District tenants can schedule a full IT cleanout instead of hauling equipment themselves.

  • Recycling organizations and haulers

    Collection programs, haulers and junk removal crews can unload mixed e-waste at the west-side docks.

Household vs. Business E-Waste in Fort Worth

Fort Worth residents can take a couple of electronics to the city's drop-off stations, which cap households at two items every six months. The Environmental Collection Center handles household chemicals, not electronics, and doesn't serve businesses. Anyone with more than a few devices, and every business, needs another route, which is where our partner location and commercial pickup come in.

Texas Electronics Recycling Rules

Texas requires computer and TV manufacturers to offer recycling to consumers through the Texas Recycles Computers and Texas Recycles TVs programs, which the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality oversees. Those programs are built for household equipment, so offices, schools, and other organizations generally need a commercial recycler. TCEQ also advises deleting personal information from hard drives before any computer is donated, sold or recycled (TCEQ electronics recycling).
