Data Center Decommissioning in Dublin
Equinix DB2 - Dublin, Kilcarbery stands on Kilcarbery Business Park in Dublin. Decommissioning here means removing and disposing of retired hardware from the racks you operate in a facility that another company owns and runs. Reboot Monkey is a third-party datacenter services operator, not a hosting company and not a datacenter owner, so the work is planned around the customer's asset list and the operator's site rules rather than around any hosting platform of our own. That is why timing is agreed before anyone travels to site. Removal is scheduled with the customer in advance, including any out-of-hours or weekend windows the facility requires. A CTO or IT Director planning a hardware exit gets a fixed plan for who attends, when, and which racks are touched, instead of an open-ended site visit.

Our Data Center Decommissioning Services
Decommissioning covers servers, switches, storage arrays, and their cabling and rail kits. The work starts from your asset list. Serial numbers, asset tags and rack positions are recorded against that list, so the inventory you hold and the equipment that leaves the rack can be compared line by line. Every item is logged as it is removed, which gives procurement and audit-minded finance teams a record of what was taken out of each rack and in what order.
A second, briefed Reboot Monkey engineer is named as backup for every customer site, so a planned removal window does not depend on a single person being available. Reboot Monkey engineers carry out the physical removal and cable work inside the customer's rack, under the operator's access rules.
Where retired hardware must leave the building as a managed disposal, Reboot Monkey also handles IT asset disposition (ITAD). ITAD covers data wiping, on-site shredding or degaussing, collection and transport, and resale or buyback quoted case by case. All of it is processed by Reboot Monkey staff in a partner's processing facility or on the customer's site. Decommissioning and ITAD can be ordered together or separately, depending on whether you need the hardware only removed or also disposed of.

Why Reboot Monkey
Reboot Monkey sells rack space, IP transit, leased IP addresses, network, data-centre hardware and the services that deliver, install and support them, inside data centres that other companies own and run. Because the same engineers install and remove equipment, a decommissioning request in Dublin is handled by people who work in this environment every day, under the site rules of the operator that runs the building.
Coverage is not limited to one site or one country. As of 2026, Reboot Monkey's field engineers work in 190 countries and more than 400 locations. For an organisation retiring hardware in Dublin as part of a wider estate consolidation, that means the same working method can be applied to the other sites in the programme, with the removal log and asset-list reconciliation produced in the same form each time.
Prices are quoted on request and depend on the customer and the size of the job. To start, send your asset list and the racks involved through the contact form. The request is then scheduled with you in advance and carried out under the operator's access policy.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does data center decommissioning cover in Dublin?
Decommissioning covers servers, switches, storage arrays, and their cabling and rail kits. Serial numbers, asset tags and rack positions are recorded against the customer's asset list, and every item is logged as it is removed. Removal is scheduled with the customer in advance, including any out-of-hours or weekend windows the facility requires.
Do you work in every datacenter in Dublin?
Reboot Monkey engineers work in any facility in Dublin where the customer has equipment and access, under the operator's own access and safety rules. The customer adds the engineers to the facility's access list before the first visit.
How fast can Reboot Monkey respond in Dublin?
Incidents and unplanned requests are handled under a 1-hour, around-the-clock incident response SLA. There is also a 15 minute premium response available where technicians are stationed on-site, as a paid add-on. On-site, dispatch and resolution times, priority tiers, and planned or scheduled work are agreed per site in the service agreement.
How is Reboot Monkey different from the facility operator's own staff?
Facility operators' own technicians work for the building. Reboot Monkey engineers work for the customer: they are independent from facility operators (not Equinix SmartHands, not NTT staff), follow the customer's instructions, and the same team can cover several buildings in the city under one agreement.
How do I get started with data center decommissioning in Dublin?
Send the site, the equipment and the task through the contact form. Reboot Monkey replies with a quote and an engineer plan for that facility. Once agreed, the customer adds the engineers to the facility's access list and the data center decommissioning work is scheduled under the operator's rules.
