We have led in the reverse supply chain industry in Dallas since 1979 and those years of experience has given us an edge for our clients that none of our competition can match.We break down and recycle all types of electronic products. Electronics that are not just full pieces of equipment we handle as well, like parts and other material. We've often dealt with mainframes, telecommunications equipment, printers, monitors, computers, routers, switches, components, fax machines, modems, circuit boards, telephones technologies, cell phones, screens, projectors, and lots of various types of plastic and metals used for electronics.Each piece of equipment that enters our facility goes through a process of inspections and testing often times on even modules or components that are inside. Reusable components are remarketed to consumers and businesses in need and other materials are separated and smelted, refined, and eventually recycled as new products. All equipment is handled according strictly to all applicable laws and regulations.We operate out of Dallas Texas and all products and materials will be handled in North America and through ethical international recycling partnerships. All loads can be monitored throughout each stage in the recycling process and we can offer certificates of destruction and recycling for legal and policy compliance. We'll provide open and clear knowledge for our customers about the final destinations of all of their products ensuring unethical practices are not a concern.

We serve as a critical reverse supply chain partner for many of Dallas's businesses big and small and we love to help new clients reach environmental compliance and return requirements.Our industry has seen some tough times over the years. Initially the problems and pollution created by electronics did a lot of harm to many communities worldwide, but many efforts have help curtail unethical practices and pointed us on a path towards clean and functional procedures that clean up and recycle the mess at a low cost.Over the last few decades many national, state and international laws and procedures have been put in place to help stop some of the cleanup before the product is even made with laws to help reduce toxic components in the first place. In other instances like batteries toxic elements are clear and new laws have been put in place to help share the burden of recycling these types of electronics. At any given time many state and local governments are considering e-waste legislative measures.Other major directives include:Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive: BCD has an additional location serving businesses in Madrid, Spain and this European policy helped improve efforts to reduce waste in that region tremendously. It also helped govern their importation laws so even international businesses in the US have taken notice.RoHS Directive: Adopted in 2002 and implemented in 2006 the banning of the use of lead, mercury, cadmium, and many other dangerous elements helped to reduce the health impact of disposal and exposure in industrial applications.The EC Draft Directive for Enegry Using Products (EUP): This important policy helps to protect from importing dirty products which don't meet environmental standards.In 2011 the Texas Takeback law was signed to help curb the amount of toxic waste from CRT teevisions and monitor screens. This law forces manufacturers to be responisble for the cleanup involved in desconstrucintg these screens.
