Our scope is much broader than IT hardware. If it has a circuit board, a motor, or a power supply, it's worth asking about. Send the whole lot and we'll tell you which parts have a market, what we'll pay, and how the remainder gets handled — all in one quote.
These are patterns, not rules. Condition, volume, generation and current market demand all move things between tiers — a single unusual item can be worth more than a pallet of common ones.
Enterprise-grade equipment with an active secondary market. If you have this, it's worth a call before it goes anywhere else — this is where most of the value in a typical decommission sits.
Individually these are marginal, but in quantity they add up — and they're frequently the bulk of an office cleanout. Twenty of something is a very different conversation than one of something.
There's no resale or component value here, and we won't pretend otherwise. When this is a reasonable share of an otherwise valuable lot, it comes with us on the same trip at no charge — you don't have to separate it out or find somewhere else for it. When a load is mostly or entirely this material, handling it costs us real money, so we'll either quote a fee that covers that or tell you plainly we're not the right fit. Either way, you'll know before anything is scheduled. Whatever we do accept goes to responsible downstream processing, never a landfill.
If you want a rough sense of where your lot will land before you call, these are the things we look at first.
A five-year-old server from a widely deployed generation can be worth more than a three-year-old orphan platform. What matters is whether anyone still runs it.
Caddies, rails, power supplies, licenses and original modules meaningfully raise value. A stripped chassis is worth a fraction of a complete one.
Forty identical laptops are easier to move than forty different ones, and the offer reflects that. Matched lots price better.
Known provenance, service history and clean asset records reduce risk on our end, which lets us pay more on yours.
We buy both. Confirmed-working units carry a premium, but untested and even faulty equipment still has component value worth quoting.
Secondary market pricing moves. Equipment sitting in storage for three more years will almost always be worth less than it is today.
One thing worth knowing: the single most common way businesses lose money here is by holding equipment "until we have time to deal with it." Depreciation on the secondary market is steep and continuous. If a refresh is coming, the time to get a quote is when the new gear is ordered, not a year after the old gear is unplugged.
An asset list, a spreadsheet export, or photos. Model and serial info helps us price accurately, but we'll work with whatever you've got — and for large, mixed or hard-to-describe lots, just ask and we'll come walk it with you in person.
Usually within one business day, itemized by category so you can see the reasoning and pass it up the chain internally.
Serialized inventory is captured on site before loading. You keep a signed manifest of everything that left the building.
Sanitization or physical destruction to your spec, certificates issued, and payment by check or ACH.
When we'll say no. We'd rather be upfront than waste your time: we sometimes decline lots. Usually that's a load with essentially no recoverable value, a job where travel and labor exceed anything we could recover, material we're not equipped to handle safely, or equipment we can't establish clear ownership of. If that's your situation we'll tell you quickly and, where we can, point you toward someone better suited. A fast no is more useful to you than a slow maybe.
On larger or mixed lots we can quote two ways: a firm number up front, or a settlement after everything is tested and graded. The firm offer is simpler and faster. The settlement usually nets more if the equipment turns out to be in better shape than the photos suggested. We'll tell you honestly which one we think fits your lot.
You don't need to know what any of it is worth — that's our job. If we don't think there's money in it, we'll say so, and we'll still take it off your hands.
Tell us what you have and we'll get back to you quickly — usually same day.
