Sylvia Taschka (5/5 stars, 9 months ago): This is a great place for recycling newer electronics! The owner Al was incredibly nice and made sure to show me how he destroyed the hardware. Be aware that the place is a bit hard to find! If you use your navigation system and it tries to lead you through a cemetery ignore that drive to Joy Rd instead and look for a rectangular building all the way in the back at their house number.

Keke S. (5/5 stars, a year ago): I'm happy I found this place. I recycled 3 laptops and a few other small items. I'm most impressed with the destruction of my hard drive. Al (recycling staff) added multiple holes with a drilling tool to 3 hard drives and added liquid to ensure the drive was destroyed. Thank you Al for your help and expertise. I recommend National Computer Recovery for electronic waste recycling. Keona

Jeff Jahr (5/5 stars, a year ago): Al runs a tidy operation and understands the operational security issues around decommissioned hardware. He breaks systems down for *proper* recycling and you can trust that your data isn't going to ghost back on you from some opportunistic downstream processor. Trustworthy and transparent bring your decoms here to CYA.
