History of 360 eWaste
Solutions |
Fun Facts...
-We operated as Kick Amp Electronics or KA Electronics from mid 2017 to mid 2022 and made a more professional company name of 360 E-Waste Solutions.
-Mid to Late 2022 we rebranded the company to a more Professional name to target more clients as Kick Amp Elections sounded to generic and sounded like a audio company more than a recycling company.
-Both owners worked in the Electronic Recycling and Refurbishing business. One left in end of 2017 and has been doing side work in the field.
-The industry as a whole has seen a spike in sales since Covid-19 starts and as continued.

Year 2024
We made the leap and have a 500sqft office space and small warehouse space. eBay and walk-in sales have been successful. Hopefully 2025 will have more opportunities ahead for us.
Year 2023
This year we made some great accomplishments. Our eBay sales are going strong, and we picked up additional large clients. With all the success we have had this year. We are pleased to announce that we have decided to start searching for a warehouse in 2024.
Year 2022
We added social media/favicons at the bottom of the website. We got company logos made up and vehicle magnets designed and put into use. We continued to do our online sales as we always have yet they have fallen this year as we had other projects going on. Rebranding the company to 360 E-Waste Solutions was a success. New selling platforms are being research and plan to launch those next year. Working on getting partners are repair shops as drop off facilities.
Year 2021
We re-evaluated the idea of getting a office/warehouse space in March. We decided to re-evaluate this as we didn't know the future of Covid-19 with the vaccine rollout. We came to the decision that we will make every attempt to move into a space by the holiday season. Sale were good throughout the year. Our website went live in the middle of August making the switch from erecycle2018.weebly.com to more professional website url along with our email system went live at the same time.
Year 2020
Covid-19 took a toll. The plan to move into a office/warehouse space was no longer being considered. We were working on keeping our overhead at a minimum to get through Covid-19. Inventory was not coming in like it was the previous year however we made due. Online sales had there high and low points. Overall sales were decently well give the year that we had been through. In November we talked again about getting a space and felt it wouldn't be good because we didn't know what was going to happen with Covid-19 over the winter and through the first part of 2021.
Year 2019
In the spring of 2019 we re-evaluated the office/warehouse space idea and decided to once again put it off as we were doing fine as it was. Online sales we going well. We opened a 2nd eBay account. We started reaching out to businesses in the area offering the services we provide. In December of 2019 we put a goal to have a office/warehouse space by March of 2020. Online sale were doing really well between all the online sales platforms. We launch our Facebook page in April.
Year 2018
The company was operating out of both owners homes and a small storage unit. We started looking into smaller office/warehouse spaces in early 2018 but decided it would not be cost effective and financially possible. We barrowed vans and trucks from other friends that owned businesses to get the business running. Along with eBay we started selling on a couple more selling platforms like Mericari, Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, Offerup, PayPal. When those other selling platforms were introduced we noticed a spike in sales. In November of 2018 we talked about looking for a office/warehouse space once again and decided we would pursue it in the spring of 2019. Throughout the year we worked with eBay on getting or selling limits raise so we could sell more items.
Mid 2017
Kick Amp Electronics was established in mid 2017. Started by 2 coworkers branched out to start their own company which they call Kick Amp Electronics. Our first online sale happened on eBay in October 2017.
