Colocation facilities or companies often deal with thousands of pieces of high-end hardware. Keeping it all up to date can be difficult, and oftentimes the companies attempt to unload outdated equipment on Craigslist, eBay or another online service. The time that can take, and the headaches it presents, can both be significant.That’s why colocation facilities or companies that have used equipment to get rid of contact OceanTech. The Minneapolis-based electronics recycling company sells more used hardware than just about anyone in the business.“We know that it can be very time consuming and frustrating to try to sell your decommissioned hardware. Instead, a call to OceanTech puts experts on your doorstep ready to handle the job,” says Al Sumetsky.OceanTech buys data center equipment, including servers and other high-end hardware, handles the secure data destruction in accordance with the industry’s highest standards, and returns about 2-3 times more to the seller.“We typically offer as much as three times as much for a piece of equipment than most other buy-back programs,” Sumetsky says.OceanTech is able to assist colocation facilities or companies because of their extensive sales channels and long-term relationships with thousands of companies nationwide.“Our customers know that we not only take the decommissioned equipment off their hands, but we do the environmentally responsible thing and clean, refurbish, and recycle the equipment, instead of stripping it and trashing it like many other ‘recyclers’ do,” says Sumetsky.OceanTech’s relationships with colocation facilities or companies are a testament to the company’s ability to deal not only with computers, laptops and decommissioned printers but with high-end server and networking equipment, as well.OceanTech was established to help companies recoup the value from used hardware and electronics. Adding value to the services of colocation facilities is just another market that the company serves.“Our colocation partners tell us all the time that they would never have made a particular sale if it hadn’t been for their ability too provide a resource for selling a customer’s used hardware following migration into the data center,” Sumetsky says.To find out more about how your colocation facility can work with OceanTech, contact us today
