How Tariffs Are Driving the Demand for Refurbished Electronics in the Pacific Northwest
As tariffs continue to increase the cost of new electronics, businesses across Washington, Oregon, and Alaska are turning to asset recovery and refurbished electronics as cost-effective, sustainable solutions. Total Reclaim helps organizations recover valuable components, recycle responsibly, and extend the life of their technology while reducing environmental impact.
Why Tariffs Are Changing Buying Behavior
Recent tariff increases have raised the price of new electronics and IT equipment, prompting companies in Seattle, Portland, Anchorage, and beyond to look for alternative solutions. Refurbished electronics offer:
Lower acquisition costs
Reduced supply chain delays
Compliance with corporate sustainability initiatives
The Role of Asset Recovery in This Shift
Asset recovery allows businesses to reclaim value from retired or surplus electronics rather than paying high costs for disposal. At Total Reclaim, we provide:
✅ Secure data destruction for sensitive IT devices
✅ Refurbishment and resale of viable computers, servers, and office electronics
✅ Certified recycling for end-of-life equipment in Washington, Oregon, and Alaska
✅ Comprehensive documentation for compliance and tax benefits
Sustainability Meets Savings
Refurbishing and reusing electronics not only reduces e-waste but also helps conserve resources and meet corporate sustainability goals. By extending the life of electronics through professional recycling and reclamation services, businesses can achieve both environmental and financial benefits.

Why Mid-Year Is the Perfect Time for Secure Digital Data Destruction
July is the perfect time to clean out old electronics and securely destroy sensitive data. Learn how Total Reclaim helps businesses stay compliant and eco-friendly with certified digital destruction and e-waste recycling services.
As we reach the halfway point of the year, July offers the ideal opportunity to review, reset, and responsibly retire outdated digital equipment. From hard drives to old laptops, securely disposing of sensitive data and e-waste protects your business and the environment.
Old Electronics Pose Real Data Risks
Holding onto old drives, laptops, and servers may seem harmless—but they often contain recoverable data, even after deletion. Total Reclaim’s Secure Destruction Services eliminate that risk by physically shredding drives and safely recycling the materials.
Stay Compliant with Privacy Laws
Internal compliance policies and secure data disposal is more than a best practice—it’s a legal requirement. We provide Certificates of Destruction to ensure your compliance is documented and auditable.

This is the perfect time to clear out:
Outdated desktops, laptops, and servers
Backup devices and hard drives

Whether it’s one device or 100, we’ve got you covered.
