Since 2011, EMP, a family-owned electronics recycling company based in Northwest Ohio, has assisted businesses and organizations in finding better ways to manage technology they no longer need. Serving clients throughout the Great Lakes region, we focus on providing responsible e-waste disposal solutions for retired electronics, whether that involves reuse, asset recovery, or recycling. However, the story of EMP began long before 2011.
BUILT ON DECADES OF TECHNOLOGY & RELATIONSHIPS
Rob Bruno has spent 47 years in IT, witnessing the evolution of technology as businesses change and today’s latest equipment becomes tomorrow's surplus. Meanwhile, Barb Bruno dedicated much of her career to politics, fostering relationships across Northwest Ohio and understanding an essential truth: good business is built on trust. These two worlds merged at EMP.
What began as a local family business has expanded into a vital recycling partner for businesses, schools, government agencies, and organizations across the region. And we continue to grow.
BUILDING SOMETHING FOR THE NEXT GENERATION
Today, EMP remains a family-owned business that the grandkids now watch grow, adding a personal touch to our mission. We strive to build a successful company that helps organizations find responsible technology recycling solutions for their retired equipment, ensuring we keep useful items in circulation when possible and recycle those that have truly reached the end of their life.
We are committed to building EMP for what’s next and working toward a cleaner future for generations to come.
We don't believe bigger has to mean impersonal. Real people answer our phones. We know our customers. And when something doesn't fit neatly into a box, we'll help figure it out.
That's something we intend to protect as EMP grows. Because the technology may change, but the way you treat people shouldn't.

As the owner of a family-owned electronics recycling business, I am committed to providing responsible e-waste disposal and innovative technology recycling solutions.
