Each retiring drone fleet represents both an environmental responsibility and a material recovery opportunity. REFPV's enterprise program serves Billings businesses with fleet assessments, coordinated pickups, and compliance reporting.
Montana follows federal EPA guidelines for e-waste disposal, with additional state-specific requirements for lithium battery handling. REFPV helps Billings drone operators navigate these regulations with certified recycling that meets or exceeds all compliance standards. Our R2-certified facilities guarantee proper handling at every stage of the recycling process.
A single drone contains a surprising array of valuable materials. Brushless motors yield copper windings and rare earth magnets (neodymium, dysprosium). Circuit boards contain gold, silver, palladium, and platinum. Airframes contribute aluminum, carbon fiber, and engineering plastics.
