Professional UPS and Battery System Removal Across Houston
Houston is one of the most critical infrastructure regions in the country, home to expansive healthcare systems, financial centers, enterprise data centers, and some of the largest energy and industrial operations in the world. Facilities across the Houston metro are modernizing their power infrastructure or decommissioning legacy sites. In many cases, that includes the need to remove high-capacity UPS systems and battery strings.
These systems are often heavy, complex, and difficult to decommission safely without professional support. USA Decom specializes in the removal of large UPS units rated at 20kVA or higher, along with all associated batteries, switchgear, and distribution components. Whether you are vacating a colocation facility, shutting down a server room, or upgrading to lithium-ion technology, our team is prepared to manage the full scope of your removal.
Our services cover everything from electrical disconnect and physical removal to transportation, battery recycling, and documentation. In many cases, we can also purchase your decommissioned UPS equipment and provide credit to reduce overall project costs.
Why Facilities in Houston Rely on USA Decom
Houston’s economy is built on critical services — including energy, aerospace, shipping, finance, and healthcare. Nearly every sector depends on reliable power infrastructure, which means uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems are widely installed in buildings across the metro area.
However, large UPS systems eventually reach the end of their useful life. As facilities are upgraded, consolidated, or taken offline, these systems become a liability unless they are properly decommissioned. Improper removal can cause safety hazards, regulatory violations, or costly delays.
USA Decom offers turnkey UPS removal services that include:
- Electrical disconnection performed by licensed electricians
- Safe dismantling of UPS cabinets, battery enclosures, PDUs, and switchgear
- Rigging and crane coordination for rooftop, mezzanine, or basement extractions
- Battery removal, containment, and EPA-compliant recycling
- Packing, documentation, and transportation of all equipment
- Resale evaluation and fair buyback offers for reusable systems
Our Houston team works efficiently to minimize downtime and ensure complete compliance with local and federal standards for battery handling, electrical work, and equipment transport.

UPS Brands and Models We Remove in Houston
USA Decom removes a wide range of UPS systems found in Houston-area facilities. These include both modern three-phase units and older legacy platforms. We understand the nuances of different manufacturer designs and can manage complex extractions regardless of model age or installation constraints.
Eaton, Powerware, and Legacy Best/Exide Systems
Eaton is one of the most widely used UPS brands in commercial and industrial environments, especially in oil and gas, healthcare, and colocation. We regularly remove Eaton and its legacy brands, including models still running from Exide and Best Power acquisitions.
- Eaton 9390 and 93PM
- Eaton 9355 and 9315 (older hardwired systems)
- Powerware Plus 36, 72, and 100
- Best Power Ferrups and Fortress
Toshiba UPS Units
Toshiba systems are popular in Houston’s manufacturing sector due to their strong performance in demanding environments. Many facilities that support clean power or process-critical equipment still rely on older Toshiba models.

- Mitsubishi 2033D
- Mitsubishi SUMMIT Series
- Mitsubishi 7011A
Liebert and Vertiv (Including Chloride)
Many of Houston’s hospitals, medical centers, and government sites operate Liebert systems, now part of Vertiv. These systems are often found with legacy PDUs and hardwired bypass panels, and some are still tied to Chloride-based infrastructure.
- Liebert EXM and EXL
- Liebert NX Series
- Liebert NPower
- Liebert Series 610 (legacy platform)
- Chloride 80-NET, CP70Z, and EPS systems

Schneider Electric, APC, and MGE
APC and MGE models appear across enterprise campuses, telecom facilities, and suburban data halls. Many are still in service even if the manufacturer no longer supports them. We handle these removals with care, especially where tight access or disassembly is required.
- APC Symmetra PX
- APC Galaxy 7000 and 3000
- APC Smart-UPS VT
- MGE EPS 6000, 7000, and 8000
- MGE Galaxy 3000–5000

Additional Legacy Systems We Remove
We frequently decommission discontinued UPS systems still operating in older buildings, network hubs, and industrial sites around Houston.
- Deltec Model D and Maxi UPS
- Sola Hevi-Duty 305 and 400 Series
- Best Axxium and Patriot Pro
- Exide Electronics legacy builds
- Chloride 90-NET and older EPS configurations
If your unit isn’t listed here, we can still evaluate it for removal or resale. Send us photos or model tags for a quick review.
Battery Types We Remove and Recycle
UPS batteries must be handled with care due to weight, chemical composition, and regulatory oversight. USA Decom removes and recycles batteries of all types and chemistries, including:
- VRLA (Valve-Regulated Lead Acid)
- Flooded wet-cell batteries
- Lithium-ion UPS modules
- Absolyte sealed-cell batteries

We follow federal and state guidelines for battery transportation and provide full documentation of disposal or recycling. If batteries are damaged, leaking, or swollen, we provide containment and hazmat handling procedures to ensure safety on site and in transit.
Decommissioning Process Overview
We make large-scale UPS and battery removal straightforward. Our process includes:
- Initial Consultation
