Partnerships
Partnerships That Turn Electronics Into Opportunity
Scarce Resources Company Inc. partners with scrap yards, MSPs, ITAD companies, data centers, recyclers, and business operators that need a stronger path for e-waste, retired electronics, and recoverable technology assets.
E-Waste Partner
Let us be your e-waste partner.
Electronics can be difficult to sort, evaluate, refurbish, resell, and process correctly. Scarce Resources helps partners handle the electronics side of the business so valuable material does not get treated like ordinary scrap. We bring the sorting, recovery, refurbishment, dismantling, resale, and recycling knowledge needed to turn e-waste into a more organized and valuable material stream.

Who We Partner With
We work with businesses and operators that regularly encounter electronics, retired IT assets, components, and mixed e-waste but need a stronger outlet for processing, recovery, refurbishment, resale, or recycling.
Scrap Yards
Partner with Scarce Resources to create a stronger outlet for electronics, boards, drives, laptops, desktops, networking gear, and mixed e-waste that comes through your yard.
MSPs & IT Providers
Give your clients a professional path for retired computers, servers, networking equipment, drives, and office technology without building an internal recycling or refurbishment operation.
ITAD Companies
Work with Scarce Resources on material that needs additional sorting, refurbishment, dismantling, parts recovery, resale evaluation, or downstream processing.
Data Centers
Server racks, networking equipment, drives, storage arrays, and bulk data center assets. We evaluate for resale, handle data-bearing devices, and recycle what remains.
Recyclers & Processors
Use Scarce Resources for electronics-heavy loads, mixed technology assets, components, and material that needs more specialized recovery before reaching the recycling stream.
Businesses With Recurring Electronics
If your organization regularly generates retired electronics, we can help build a repeatable path for recovery, resale, parts, data handling, and recycling.
Why Partner With Us
What sets Scarce Resources apart.
We are focused on recovering real value from business electronics — not treating everything like generic scrap.
Recovery-First Mindset
We do not treat every load like scrap from the start. Usable equipment is evaluated for resale, refurbishment, parts recovery, or component value before it is directed toward recycling.
Built for Business Material
Scarce Resources is focused on business electronics, pallets, gaylords, truckloads, mixed lots, and recurring material streams — not basic residential drop-off.
Secure Handling of Data-Bearing Devices
Drives, computers, servers, and other data-bearing electronics are handled with security in mind. Devices can be securely wiped for reuse or physically destroyed when requested.
More Paths for More Value
Some electronics should be resold. Some repaired. Some parted out. Some dismantled and recycled. Our process finds the right path instead of forcing everything into one category.
Nationwide Partner Reach
Based in Northeast Ohio, but our relationships extend across the country. We work with partners, buyers, and material sources in multiple regions.
Long-Term Relationship Focus
We want to build repeatable, reliable business relationships. Whether you have one project or ongoing material, our goal is to be a dependable outlet for electronics recovery.

How It Works
How Partnership Works
Four steps from first contact to a repeatable recovery relationship.
-
Send Material Details
Share what type of electronics you see, where it comes from, approximate volume, photos, pallet counts, and any data handling needs.
-
Review the Opportunity
We evaluate whether the material is best suited for resale, refurbishment, parts recovery, secure data handling, dismantling, or recycling.
-
Coordinate Movement
Depending on distance, volume, and material value, we coordinate pickup, truckload, drop-off, or shipped material options.
-
Build the Relationship
For recurring material streams, we work toward a repeatable partnership that helps both sides create more value from electronics.
Common Questions
Frequently asked.
- What types of electronics do you handle?
- We handle many types of business electronics, including laptops, desktops, servers, networking gear, drives, components, boards, wires, office phones, and mixed electronics lots. Some material is refurbished or resold, while other material is dismantled for parts or recycling.
- Do you offer business pickups?
- Yes, depending on the material, volume, distance, and value. We can coordinate pickups, truckloads, drop-offs, or shipped material. For pickup situations, customers should expect to load the truck unless another arrangement is made.
- Do you handle data-bearing devices?
- Yes. Data-bearing devices can be securely wiped for reuse or physically destroyed when requested. Data handling is treated as an important part of the process.
- Can you provide documentation?
- Yes — intake summaries, asset counts, serial-number reporting when applicable, load IDs, received and processing dates, wipe or destruction method, and certificates of data destruction when requested. Documentation depends on material type, volume, and what processing is performed. See How We Work → Documentation for a full list.
- Do you buy electronics or charge for recycling?
- It depends on the material. Some electronics may have resale, parts, or scrap value and may be purchased outright or handled on a revenue-share basis. Other material may require processing fees, freight costs, or special handling. The best way to know is to send details, photos, quantities, and location. See How We Work → Pricing & Value for more on how jobs are structured.
- Do you accept residential electronics?
- Scarce Resources Company Inc. is focused on business and bulk electronics recovery. For residential drop-off, individual devices, or TV recycling, Chagrin Electronic Recycling (fallsrecycle.com) may be a better fit.
