Who We Are

Blake Strickland: Owner/ Operator

Blake Strickland is the founder of Strickland Electronic Recycling. He has been involved in the recycling business since 1992, when he used to walk the floors of a warehouse run by his father. The education received while working with both his dad and David Ritter (owner of Global Investment Recovery) has proven invaluable. After graduating from high school there was no question as to what his career choice would be. He was hired by Global Investment Recovery as a warehouse worker while attending college. Upon graduation he became a warehouse manager.Global Investment Recovery was acquired by Sims Recycling Solutions in 2008, and Blake then went through several training classes to better serve his customers and also be a trainer of personnel within the company. He was also named head of the 5S project that was charged with re-organizing the company.Once Sims Recycling Solutions chose to close the South Carolina locations, Blake knew he could not leave his customers without recycling services and felt the time was right to start his own company providing the same quality services they were accustomed to.

Donald Adkins

Donald was the first employee hired by Global Investment Recovery in 1992. He has served the company through it's acquisition and until Sims Recycling Solutions closed the South Carolina locations.Donald has learned the business by not only holding every job within the warehouse, but by traveling to offsite locations to oversee the removal of equipment from those sites.When Sims Recycling Solutions was awarded the state of South Carolina contract there was no question as to who would be handling the pickups. Donald has been instrumental in building the business since day one. He has received many compliments from our customers about how well mannered, and detailed oriented he is with his work. I can promise that Donald will bring you that same attention to detail that he does all our current customers.
