Data Center Decommissioning in Lulea
Luleå Kommunhus stands on Rådstugatan in Lulea. A decommissioning job here starts with the equipment the customer has retired and the racks it sits in. Reboot Monkey is a third-party datacenter services operator: it works inside data centres that other companies own and run, and it does not operate the building. The facility operator owns and runs the building, including its power, cooling and access policy, and Reboot Monkey engineers work under the operator's site rules.
That division shapes how the work is planned. Reboot Monkey takes responsibility for the hardware removal itself: identifying what is to come out, recording it, removing it and handing it on for disposal. Anything that depends on the building, such as access arrangements or permitted working hours, is agreed with the customer in advance so that removal fits the window the facility requires.

Our Data Center Decommissioning Services
Data center decommissioning is the removal and disposal of retired hardware. In Lulea the scope covers servers, switches, storage arrays, and their cabling and rail kits. The job is run as a sequence the customer can follow and check at each stage.
- Recording: serial numbers, asset tags and rack positions are recorded against the customer's asset list before anything is touched.
- Scheduling: removal is scheduled with the customer in advance, including any out-of-hours or weekend windows the facility requires.
- Removal: Reboot Monkey engineers take out the servers, switches and storage arrays together with their cabling and rail kits.
- Logging: every item is logged as it is removed, so the customer's asset list and the removal record can be reconciled line by line.
- Disposal: where retired equipment needs data wiping, on-site shredding or degaussing, collection and transport, or resale and buyback, this is handled as IT asset disposition (ITAD). Resale and buyback are quoted case by case, and the work is processed by Reboot Monkey staff in a partner's processing facility or on the customer's site.
Why Reboot Monkey
A decommissioning project is judged by whether the asset list and the physical reality match when the job closes. Reboot Monkey records each item against the customer's asset list at the start and logs it again on removal, so the customer ends the job with a record that ties each retired device to a serial number, an asset tag and the rack position it came from.
Continuity matters on a site that may be visited out of hours. A second, briefed Reboot Monkey engineer is named as backup for every customer site, so a missed window does not depend on one person's availability.
Reboot Monkey is vendor-neutral and sells services alongside rack space, IP transit, leased IP addresses and network. It is not a hosting company, so the decommissioning work carries no interest in keeping the customer's hardware or workloads in place. Prices are quoted on request and depend on the customer and the size of the job.

Data Center Decommissioning in Other Cities in Sweden
Customers with equipment in more than one Swedish city can run the same decommissioning process across sites. The same recording, scheduling and logging steps apply, and the customer keeps one asset list as the reference for every location. For equipment in the capital, see [Data Center Decommissioning in Stockholm](/en/sweden/stockholm/data-center-decommissioning/). As of 2026, Reboot Monkey's field engineers work in 190 countries and more than 400 locations, so a project that spans several countries can be planned in the same way.

Decommissioning often sits next to other changes in the same rack or room. If retired hardware is being replaced or consolidated, moving the equipment that stays is a separate job from removing the equipment that goes, and the two are easiest to plan together. Moving live equipment between racks, rooms or facilities is covered by [Server Migration in Lulea](/en/sweden/lulea/server-migration/), and a wider move of a whole environment is covered by [Data Center Migration in Lulea](/en/sweden/lulea/data-center-migration/). Where new capacity is needed to take over from the retired kit, [Colocation in Lulea](/en/sweden/lulea/colocation/) provides rack space inside a facility run by its operator, with Reboot Monkey engineers installing and patching the cabling in the customer's rack.
Frequently Asked Questions

Serial numbers, asset tags and rack positions are recorded against the customer's asset list, removal is scheduled in advance with the customer, and every item is logged as it is removed.
Do you work in every datacenter in Lulea?
Reboot Monkey engineers work in any facility in Lulea 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 Lulea?
