Professional removal and disposal of legacy radio equipment, carried out safely, securely and in full compliance with industry regulations
Our experienced Engineering and Rigging teams carry out professional decommissioning of licensed and unlicensed microwave radio equipment. Rapid Wireless ensures all removals are conducted safely, efficiently and in full compliance with the WEEE Directive.
Whether equipment is being retired due to network upgrades or site closures, we handle all aspects of disassembly, data cleansing and responsible disposition. Equipment is either returned to storage, recycled, or securely disposed of depending on client requirements and environmental best practices.
As part of our commitment to sustainability, Rapid Wireless manages recycling and reuse of decommissioned assets wherever possible. We also hold a range of recycled spares and can source hard-to-find components for maintaining legacy microwave networks.
We guarantee complete removal of sensitive configuration data from all devices before they leave site. This ensures your network remains secure and compliant with data protection regulations.
Radio site decommissioning can deliver significant benefits:
Where applicable, antenna mounts and cabling can be left in place for future use – subject to approval by the mast or site owner.
