Computer, eWaste, & Electronics Recycling in Redmond, WA
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
The increased demand for technology has led to a corresponding increase in electronic waste (e-waste). This is when electronic devices are discarded even though they still have some life left in them. E-waste can include anything from old cell phones to televisions and computers. The various components of e-waste can be harmful to the environment if not disposed of properly. For example, lead and mercury are both found in electronic devices and can contaminate soil and water if leaked. This problem requires a greener solution, and that’s where the R3eWaste recycling center comes in.
At R3eWaste, we specialize in the proper disposal of electronic equipment. We have several locations throughout the state of Washington, including Redmond. Our team is proud to offer free recycling services to residents and businesses in the area. We will accept any type of electronic device, regardless of age or condition to ensure that the electronic waste is properly recycled and does not end up in a landfill, causing our planet and humanity even more harm.

Collection
We have several curbside drop-off locations throughout the state of Washington where you can drop off your electronic devices for recycling. If you are in a time crunch or have too much electronic waste to deliver yourself, we offer free pickup services for businesses and residents alike. After we receive your device, we will begin the process of destroying the device and disassembling the components to prepare it for recycling.
Sorting
Once the devices have been collected and delivered to our facilities, our team of experts begins to sort through the devices. This is an important step in the recycling process as it allows us to identify any hazardous materials that need to be disposed of properly. We do not allow any material that could potentially harm the environment to leave our facilities and head to a landfill. Everything is recycled safely and securely.
Data Destruction
One of the main concerns people have when recycling their devices is the security of their personal data. At R3eWaste, we understand these concerns and have the proper procedures in place to ensure that all data is destroyed before the device is recycled. We use a variety of methods to do this, including physical destruction and degaussing. Once the data is destroyed, it is impossible to recover or reuse the device, ensuring that your privacy is protected.
Appraisal and Money Back
After your device has been recycled, we will send you an appraisal of the device and give you a portion of its value back into your pocket. We believe that everyone should be rewarded for their efforts in recycling and that’s why we offer this service. We hope that this incentive will encourage more people to recycle their devices and help reduce the amount of e-waste in landfills.
