Other World Computing today announced the acquisition of PowerON Services, Inc., a recognized leader in IT asset disposition (ITAD), trade-in, reverse logistics, refurbishment, and technology value recovery solutions.
Organizations are making massive investments in technology infrastructure at a time when innovation, especially around AI, is moving incredibly fast, and many are left wondering whether the systems and devices they already own can still keep up. The reality is, much of that technology still has tremendous value and capability left in it, but extending its life in a secure, efficient, and scalable way isn’t easy.
The PowerOn acquisition is an ideal enhancement to OWC’s SellYourMac.com, one of the world’s largest and most trusted purchasers and resellers of used Apple computers, iPhones, and iPads. Together, the three will ensure organizations have access to the best ways to upgrade, reuse, recover, deploy, and manage technology so they can save money, reduce complexity, remain agile, and keep more equipment out of landfills.
For more than three decades, PowerON Services, Inc. has remained at the forefront of the IT asset disposition (ITAD), trade-in, and electronics value recovery industry, delivering innovative take-back and reuse solutions to some of the world’s largest organizations. Founded in 1994, PowerON specializes in the movement, processing, refurbishment, and responsible recycling of used computing, mobile, and consumer electronic devices. Headquartered in Roseville, California, just outside Sacramento, the company operates a primary processing facility supported by a network of third-party partner facilities serving customers across the Americas, Europe, and Asia-Pacific regions. As part of the OWC family of companies, PowerOn’s operational and services footprint will be dramatically expanded across America and around the world. PowerON’s comprehensive service offerings include customized and turnkey product take-back programs, value recovery solutions, reuse strategies, reverse logistics, repair services, secure data destruction, recycling, de-manufacturing, and brand protection initiatives. The company’s leadership team brings more than 100 years of combined experience across the ITAD and trade-in industries, with expertise spanning global sales, software development, customer service, logistics, value forecasting, design, marketing, and data security. This collaborative and multidisciplinary approach enables PowerON to deliver world-class reuse and recycling solutions while helping clients maximize value recovery and support sustainability goals.
