COMPANY OVERVIEW

 

Full Service Recycler of Electronic Equipment

Fully Permitted and ISO 14001 Certified

80,000 sq.ft. facility in Sparks, NV

 

Unlike many "recyclers" we do not ship your electronics to

developing countries (we recycle all equipment domestically)

In the last 90 years since our establishment in 1917, the Sims Group has evolved to become the world’s largest recycling company and more recently recognized as the world’s largest electronics recycler.  Most recently, Sims acquired Global Investment Recovery (GIR) to further enhance our position as the world’s largest electronics recycler.

With our resources available today and our continued growth for the future, we are well positioned to provide the recycling solutions necessary to deliver high environmental outcomes through the diversion of waste from landfill, thus protecting the environment and future for all.

Sims Recycling Solutions is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sims Metal Management, a publicly traded (Sims Group Limited, SMS), $8 Billion per year recycling enterprise with 200 global operations.

Sims Recycling Solutions specializes in the total recycling of Covered Electronic waste (CEW); TVs, monitors, laptops; UWED: computers, DVD players, VCR’s, cell phones, printers, stereos, radios and all other electronic material often referred to under the collective heading – “e-waste”.

In North America our electronics recycling facilities are based in San Francisco CA, Sacramento CA, Los Angeles CA, Reno NV, Salley SC, Tuscon AZ, Shreveport LA, Tampa FL, La Vergne TN, Chicago IL, and Brampton, ON Canada. The twelve facilities total approximately 2,400,000 square feet dedicated to the recycling of electronics via demanufacturing, shredding, and remarketing of re-usable equipment.

 

In 2007, Sims NA remarketed over 600,000 units, and recycled 200 million pounds of electronics.
