Don’t let your old desktop computer gather dust—recycle it for free with Scrapped it. Desktops are packed with valuable materials and sensitive data, making responsible recycling essential for both our environment and your security.
Why Recycle Desktops?
Your desktop is a reservoir of precious resources:
-High-value metals like gold, copper, aluminum, and rare earth elements
-Reusable components including RAM, CPUs, power supplies, and motherboards
Recycling recovers these materials, reducing the need for costly and ecologically harmful mining. It’s a practical way to contribute to a sustainable, circular economy.
Securing Your Data Is Our Priority
Before you recycle, we recommend these simple steps to protect your privacy:
-Back up your files to an external drive or cloud service
-Perform a full factory reset to erase personal data
-Remove login passwords and activation locks to enable refurbishment
Can’t access the computer? No problem. We also offer on-site hard drive removal for a small fee. Whether through digital wiping or physical destruction, your data will be handled securely.
What Happens After You Recycle?
Once you bring your desktop to us, here’s how we ensure it’s responsibly processed:
Careful Dismantling: Our technicians disassemble each unit by hand.
Component Recovery: Functional parts—RAM, GPUs, CPUs, and more—are tested and sorted for reuse.
Refurbishment & Donation: Working desktops are reinstalled with clean software and often donated to schools, nonprofits, or families in need.
Material Reclamation: Non-working components are broken down to reclaim metals and plastics, keeping hazardous materials out of Tennessee’s soil and water.
