Data Center Decommissioning and Scrap Recovery Services

Data Center Decommissioning and Scrap Recovery Services

PC Metals supports data center decommissioning with a clear focus on infrastructure scrap and demolition materials. Our work centers on the physical systems inside the facility — not the IT layer. Contractors, facility managers, and project teams across Bridgeport, Fairfield County, and throughout Connecticut rely on us to recover maximum value from data center infrastructure with speed, clarity, and hands-on support.

Infrastructure Scrap Focus

We specialize in high-value non-ferrous materials found during data center shutdowns, server room decommissioning, and facility rebuilds. These materials often represent the largest financial return on a decommissioning project — and most teams don’t realize how much is sitting in the walls, ceilings, and power systems until someone with our experience walks the job.

Primary non-ferrous materials we recover include:

Copper busbar. Silver plated busbar. Tin plated busbar. #2 copper busbar. High grade copper wire. 750 MCM. 500 MCM. MCM. THHN. Bare bright copper wire. High grade 90 percent wire. Data center cable removal including structured cabling and power distribution wiring. Transformers. Small transformers. Copper transformers. Large copper transformers. Aluminum copper radiators and coils. ACRs. Chillers. Radiator coils. Aluminum copper coils. Copper coils. Generators and associated power equipment.

Ferrous and Demolition Scrap Recovery

We handle full-scale ferrous removal tied to data center teardown and renovation projects, including:

• Structural steel
• Sheet metal
• Light iron
• Ferrous scrap
