Scrap PCB disposal & recycling services

We recycle all kinds of Printed circuit boards, also known as PCB, we recycle both populated and unpopulated PCB.

Your company's outdated or non-working, unrepairable or discarded PCBs contain heavy metals and may contain precious metals such as gold, palladium, silver, copper, and many different hazardous materials, these shall not be disposed of at the landfill.

Most printed circuit boards are ENIG Electroless nickel immersion gold in different amounts of gold, palladium, silver, and copper.
Also, populated boards have electronic components attached to them, including connectors, diodes, capacitors, inductors, and IC (integrated circuits) Chips. These also contain copper and other precious metals and hazardous materials that shall not be disposed of at landfills.

We at BW Recycling, Inc. provide circuit boards recycling solutions for most kinds of circuit boards, such as telecommunications circuit cards, network communication boards, circuit packs, cell sites, Computer PC boards (PC motherboards and internal boards) as well as boards from laptops, notebooks, and tablets. We also take bare boards, meaning unpopulated boards. In most cases, we can pay for the boards by the Pound, and we also provide a certificate of recycling, which certifies proper disposal of the PCB. We pay the best value since we are the actual refinery.
We also buy all kinds of printed circuit boards from cell phones, smartphones, and tablets for recycling.

Free pick-up of printed circuit boards for recycling anywhere in the US

We pick up PCBs anywhere in the US. In most cases, the pick-up is free depending on the quantity and the type of boards for recycling.
See sample pictures of the printed circuit boards we do buy.

We are always ready to buy all kinds of populated PCBs and plain (unpopulated) PCBs. We pick up nationwide, if you have green boards or any other electronic scrap, we will be glad to have the chance to recycle it for you. Please contact us or fill out the quick form on the right, and we will contact you shortly with all of the information you need about our recycling program.

Printed circuit boards market prices

There are many types of printed circuit boards with different precious metals contents. Some boards may contain more silver, some more gold, and others only contain copper. With our experience, we might be able to estimate the amounts of the precious metals we might recover from the boards by looking at it, but there is no set market price for all circuit boards.

Data confidentiality when recycling Printed circuit boards and NDA.

Circuit boards and other recyclable materials may contain sensitive information and may be considered as confidential, we offer a full destruction process for the printed circuit boards according to ITAR regulations upon request. We also sign an NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) upon request.

More information about PCB recycling.

In electronics, printed circuit boards, or PCB, also known as green boards, are used to mechanically support and electrically connect electronic components using conductive pathways, or traces, etched from copper sheets laminated onto a non-conductive substrate. Alternative names are printed wiring board (PWB), and etched wiring board. Populating the board with electronic components forms a printed circuit assembly (PCA), also known as a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA), this technology is considered to be low-cost.

In the recycling process of these boards, we can recover up to 99% of the precious metals used to make the board, we are the actual recyclers, and most of the process is done in our plant, which enables us to pay high prices for your PCBs, as well as help you with a proper disposal solution for your scrap PCBs.

PCBs we do not buy

• We do not buy or take scrap printed circuit boards out of TV 's or Cathode Ray Tube monitors. (CRTs).
• We do not buy PCBs out of stereo's, VCRs or any other boards from consumer electronics.
