Synergy Recycling, LLC

Synergy Recycling, LLC is a leading-edge electronics recycling firm located in the Piedmont Triad area of North Carolina. We have developed the finest system in the industry for shredding and mechanically separating used electronic equipment into commodity grade components. Our other services include demanufacturing, asset recovery, certified data destruction of sensitive media, and transportation services for the materials we handle.

​Synergy Recycling services clients from several different industries including healthcare, finance, education and manufacturing as well as county and municipal collection programs. Synergy is also the processor of choice for several other electronics recycling companies.

How We Service

Synergy Recycling operates its own fleet of van trailers and box trucks with which we accommodate pickups in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Eastern Tennessee. We offer the following transportation solutions.

• Staged Trailers - For accounts that generate frequent truckload quantities of material, we can stage a van trailer on site for collection of material. When the trailer is full, we come out and swap it for an empty one.

• Milk Runs (LTL) Loads  - Don't have enough material to fill an entire truck? No problem! We can schedule you on our next milk run to your area.

• On-Site Packaging - If you don't have the manpower or time to package material before your pickup, our driver can take care of it for you.

• Lift Gates - All of our 26' box trucks are equipped with lift gates which make pickups at sites that are not equipped with docks or forklifts possible.

• Training - We can come on site and offer staff training on stacking and packaging to promote safe-handing practices and the most efficient usage of truck space.

• Delivered​ - ​Delivered loads are accepted. Dock time must be coordinated prior to delivery.​

End-of-Life Processing

No matter the method, you can rest assured that any EOL or destruction-only electronic item sent to Synergy Recycling will be demanufactured at our state-of-the-industry electronics recycling facility in Madison, NC. Synergy has invested heavily in shredding and mechanical separation equipment to make this possible. Low-grade material, which is very labor intensive to demanufacture by hand, is processed quickly and easily at our facility with virtually no human interaction. Our system creates some of the cleanest products in the industry. This makes us the processor of choice for several other electronics recyclers.

Destruction-Only Material
Synergy Recycling offers a certified and reliable option for destruction-only items. Whether it be proprietary equipment or ​recalled material, Synergy will ensure it is fully destroyed and responsibly recycled in our Madison, NC processing facility. We offer our clients a witnessed destruction service in which they visually observe the processing of their material by either being on-site or securely logging in to our remote camera server.
Why is this important?
Hazardous materials such as lead, mercury and cadmium exist within most electronic devices. If end-of-life electronics are placed in a landfill, over time those hazardous materials can leach into the soil and groundwater. Even worse is when these EOL electronics are shipped to countries that don't have the regulations in place to protect workers and the environment. If improperly handled, the processing of EOL electronics can create a hazard to those individuals doing the processing as well as the land, air and water in the surrounding environment.When end-of-life electronics are recycled responsibly, hazardous materials are removed or contained. At Synergy Recycling, all hazardous materials are managed in full compliance with regulatory requirements.

Asset Management

In a world where technology is rapidly changing, your IT equipment is becoming outdated more frequently than ever before. IT Assets are big investments, and Synergy Recycling wants to help you recover that investment when items are no longer of use to your company.

Warranties are typically expired 2 years following a purchase. Once this happens, items become more of a liability than an asset. They are no longer supported by the manufacturer's exchange program and repairs will need to be done internally. During ages 3 and 4 of IT equipment (such as PCs), the resale value drops significantly. Synergy Recycling can turn these obsolete electronics into cash that can be used in your IT budget going forward.
