Scarce Resources Company Inc.

For Scrap Yards

Let us be your e-waste partner.

If electronics come through your yard, Scarce Resources can help turn that material into a stronger recovery stream — sorting, evaluating, refurbishing, dismantling, and processing e-waste so more value is recovered before material is treated like ordinary scrap.

The Problem With Electronics in a Scrap Yard

Electronics are not just another material.

Scrap yards deal in volume and consistency. Electronics are neither. Mixed batches, working drives sitting next to broken monitors, servers with unknown data on them, boards worth real money buried under broken screens — it is messy material that does not fit neatly into a standard scrap workflow.

Scarce Resources is built for exactly this kind of material. We handle the sorting, evaluation, and processing so you do not have to — and so more of the value in that material gets recovered instead of lost.

Electronics Are Inconsistent

Not every load is the same. Mixed batches, partial pallets, and odd lots make it hard to know what you have — or what it is worth.

Hard to Sort and Evaluate

Knowing what should be resold, refurbished, parted out, or scrapped takes time and specialized knowledge most yards do not have in-house.

Data Liability Is Real

Laptops, servers, and drives carry data risks. Getting that wrong has consequences. It needs a handling process built around security.

Generic Scrap Pricing Undersells the Material

Treating electronics like bulk metal leaves value on the table. Boards, working drives, refurbishable laptops, and tested networking gear are worth more than the weight.

A Stronger Outlet for E-Waste

What Scarce Resources can do with electronics coming through your yard.

Instead of treating electronics like a problem pile or sending everything to bulk scrap, Scarce Resources evaluates what you have and routes material toward the recovery path that makes the most sense — resale, refurbishment, parts recovery, data handling, dismantling, or recycling.

How It Works

From your yard to a recovery partner.

A simple, low-friction process for getting electronics out of the problem pile and into the right hands.

  1. Tell Us What Comes Through

    Share what types of electronics you see, typical volumes, how often material comes in, and any photos or descriptions of recent loads.

  2. We Review the Material

    We look at what you have and identify the right path — resale, refurbishment, parts recovery, data handling, dismantling, or recycling.

  3. Coordinate the Handoff

    Depending on volume, distance, and material value, we coordinate pickup, truckload, drop-off, or shipped material options.

  4. Build a Repeatable Outlet

    For yards with recurring electronics, we work toward a consistent relationship that makes electronics a more predictable and organized material stream.

Why Partner With Scarce Resources

More than a recycler. A recovery partner for your yard.

A lot of e-waste processors treat everything the same. Scarce Resources does not. We evaluate what can be resold, what can be refurbished, what needs to be parted out, and what should go to recycling. That difference is where value is recovered instead of lost.

For scrap yards with recurring electronics, we work toward a long-term relationship that makes electronics a predictable, organized part of the operation — not a headache every time a load comes in.

We Evaluate Before We Recycle

Working equipment is identified for resale or refurbishment before anything is treated as scrap.

Data-Bearing Devices Are Handled Carefully

Drives and storage equipment are processed with security-focused workflows. Wiping or physical destruction available when requested.

Mixed Loads Are Fine

You do not need to sort before sending. We take mixed pallets, gaylords, and bulk loads and handle the sorting ourselves.

Logistics That Work for You

Pickup, truckload, drop-off, or shipped material depending on volume, distance, and what the material is worth.
