Business is booming at Minneapolis-based OceanTech. This Minnesota electronics recycling company is the go-to source for Minnesota corporations, school districts, and organizations that want to recoup value from retired computers, laptops, servers, printers, and other electronics.
Every year OceanTech takes in tens of thousands of computers and other IT hardware, some of its top-of-the-line equipment that is just a few years old. OceanTech pays companies for the equipment, usually two to three times more than any other electronics recycling company. That’s because OceanTech is going to find your retired equipment a new home.
With multiple sales channels and relationships with more than 1500 companies around the country, OceanTech has become known as a place to find quality refurbished IT computers and IT hardware. They recycle equipment that companies no longer need, and make it available to companies that need it.
Al Sumetsky is the CEO and co-founder of OceanTech, and he gets excited when talking about the green aspects of what his company does.
“When you think about it, large corporations upgrade their equipment on a regular schedule. They often lease equipment, and when it comes time to upgrade, they can either turn that equipment in or sell it to us. It’s usually worth more to us than to the leasing company, and we clean it, make any repairs, and get it out on the market to someone who needs it. That’s pretty rewarding work,” Sumetsky says.
Minnesota electronics recycling companies are not all the same. Many are stripping computers for parts and metals and throwing away the rest. OceanTech recycles through refurbishment and resale, so decommissioned equipment is worth more to OceanTech than most Minnesota electronics recycling companies.
“Certainly in Minnesota, we are one of the largest and fastest-growing electronics recycling companies. That’s an exciting thing for us. It’s a business that offers something of value, and our structure allows us to service multiple locations across the country, so it’s fantastic for companies with several facilities in Minnesota, or anywhere around the world,” Sumetsky says.
