Electronics become obsolete relatively quickly these days, and upgrading often leaves companies and non-profit organizations wondering how to get the most return on their investment from electronics they no longer need.The R2 standard within the electronics recycling industry ensures that an electronics recycling company is doing everything it can to reduce the amount of waste from the billions in electronics that are retired each year.In Saint Paul, companies find that OceanTech, an R2 Electronics Recycling Company based in Minneapolis, delivers the full service end-of-life management of laptops and computers, LCD monitors, and high end data center equipment that companies find of value.Data security is typically a primary concern for Saint Paul businesses that want to recycle their electronics.  OceanTech alleviates those concerns by securely managing the destruction of all data housed on a hard drive and then recycling the machine for resale.The equipment one business no longer wants is still of value on the marketplace.  Growing businesses and start-ups often rely on quality used electronics to fuel their early stage operations.Recycling electronics for resale is the most environmentally responsible way of disposing of equipment no longer required, and because the equipment has value, and because OceanTech works with more than 1500 companies, they typically pay more than other electronics recyclers.OceanTech’s online marketplaces move thousands of pieces of recycled electronics every year.  That keeps the electronics out of landfills, and Saint Paul businesses appreciate that one call to OceanTech takes care of the whole process.  The company can even handle multiple locations for one business, which takes the burden off trhe IT department and puts cash back in the budget quickly and efficiently.For more information on the R2 standard, or to find out how OceanTech can handle your electronics recycling needs, call the company at 612 331 4456.
