About Yard

In 2014 Vintage Tech was acquired by the U.S. subsidiary of the multi-national recycling firm Kuusakoski Recycling. With operations in 12 countries and a history of over 100 years in recycling, Kuusakoski is a world leader in the scrap industry. From the day Kuusakoski first began collecting iron, metal scrap, and textile waste in 1914, the philosophy that drives the company has been one of "zero waste" -- the idea that every piece of scrap has value. Karrie Gibson, who founded Vintage Tech in 2005, shared this ideology when she built a talented and dedicated staff committed to promoting environmentally safe and cost-efficient means to reuse and recycle obsolete electronics. Today Kuusakoski U.S. and Vintage Tech are lead by Rich Hipp, President and CEO, who not only continues to uphold the standards and traditions set by both companies but also seeks to exceed them, to propel and establish Vintage Tech and Kuusakoski U.S. as leaders in today's ultra-competitive e-scrap market.

Vintage Tech Recyclers is dedicated to performing social goods, not only by ensuring that our entire recycling process maintains compliance, but also by encouraging activities that create a positive impact on our environment, employees, consumers, communities, and all other members of the public. Our founder, Karrie Gibson, started the company with our communities in mind, and we are committed to keeping it that way.

Staying true to Corporate Social Responsibility, we at Vintage Tech see to it that we stay actively in compliance with all laws, ethical standards, and both national and international norms. Going beyond the interest of our company, we strive to engage in activities that further social good and enhance our surrounding communities. Vintage Tech embraces our corporate responsibility for our actions, and stay dedicated to the constant innovation that continues our improvement both in the recycling sector, and our social responsibilities. We hold the idea that creating and maintaining a positive relationship to the societies in which we operate in nationally is extremely important, and having these relationships helps us to operate effectively and boost our overall performance.
