Old drones deserve better than a drawer

Damaged, outdated or simply unused drones often just sit around — no clear way to value them, no easy way to dispose of them responsibly.

DroneHub handles assessment, pickup and recycling end to end, so retiring a drone is as simple as buying one.

Common recycling questions

What most owners ask before scrapping a drone.

Can I scrap a drone that doesn't work at all?

Yes — non-working drones are still accepted for recycling, though the valuation will reflect the non-working condition.

How is the valuation calculated?

Valuation is based on drone category, reported condition and photographs submitted, then confirmed at pickup.

What happens to the drone after pickup?

Reusable components are refurbished where possible, and the rest is processed through certified e-waste recycling channels.

Is pickup available in my location?

Pickup availability is confirmed based on the location you provide during the scrap request process.

When do I receive payment for my drone?

Payout is processed once the drone is picked up and the final assessed condition is confirmed against your submitted details.
