Secure destruction of flight logs, camera data, and GPS records stored on drone memory modules.
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. REFPV's material recovery process in Kirkland achieves a 95%+ recovery rate.
Data security is a non-negotiable part of responsible drone recycling. REFPV destroys all flight logs, GPS history, camera data, and Wi-Fi credentials stored on drones from Kirkland and throughout Washington. We issue NIST-compliant Certificates of Data Destruction for every device — essential for businesses handling sensitive aerial data.
The growing drone industry in Kirkland and across Washington spans photography, mapping, delivery, agriculture, and security applications.
