Commercial UPS Removal, Decommissioning and Recycling

Do you have an old, failed or no-longer-needed uninterruptible power supply system taking up space at your facility? UPS Battery Center provides commercial UPS removal and recycling services for businesses, offices, warehouses, server rooms, data centres and other facilities throughout Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area.

We can help remove retired UPS equipment, external battery cabinets and related power equipment so it can be transported for appropriate recycling or disposal. Each project is reviewed individually based on the equipment, facility, access requirements and work involved.

Large UPS Systems and Equipment We Can Remove

Our commercial UPS removal service may include:

  • Tower, rackmount and floor-standing UPS systems
  • Three-phase and large commercial UPS systems
  • External UPS battery packs and battery cabinets
  • Sealed lead-acid UPS batteries
  • Battery racks, trays and related enclosures
  • Bypass cabinets and auxiliary UPS cabinets
  • Associated cables, conduits and related power equipment
  • Retired equipment from APC, Eaton, Vertiv, Liebert, Tripp Lite, CyberPower and other UPS brands

UPS Decommissioning and Site Removal

Depending on the equipment and site conditions, a removal project may involve assessing the system, removing batteries, dismantling equipment, moving the equipment out of the electrical or equipment room, loading and transportation coordination.

Large UPS systems can be extremely heavy and may be located in restricted electrical rooms, basements, raised-floor environments or areas with limited access. Before providing a quote, we review the equipment size and weight, floor level, door clearances, stairs, elevators, loading access and other site requirements.

Electrical disconnection and other regulated work may need to be completed or coordinated by a qualified electrical professional. The required scope of work will be reviewed and confirmed before removal is scheduled.

  • Office buildings and commercial properties
  • Warehouses and industrial facilities
  • Server rooms and data centres
  • Retail locations and financial institutions
