About The Company
Didion Orf Recycling was established in 2001 and is a full-scale R2/RIOS Certified electronics and metals recycler. Our certifications are your assurance that we strictly adhere to all federal, state, and local laws regarding the handling of electronics and sensitive data. It also means that we are committed to healthy, safe, and sustainable recycling.
When we are entrusted with a customer’s materials, we recognize the responsibility we have in the supply chain. Electronics recycling goes beyond the disposal of end-of-life technologies and equipment. If your data does not remain secure or your equipment ends up in a landfill, your brand and reputation are at risk. Our R2/RIOS Certification is our promise to you, and to the environment, that we have the people, processes, and principles in place to do what’s right for a better tomorrow.
Didion Orf Recycling is proud of our legacy of being the leader in customized plans, service reliability, unparalleled responsiveness, and highly competitive pricing. We are at your service and would appreciate the opportunity to create a solution that exceeds your process, cost, and sustainability goals.
Our St. Peters facility is R2v3/RIOS Certified. Our St. James location is not Certified.
