IT Equipment Buyback Program
Sell your retired IT equipment — laptops, servers, switches, storage. Free evaluation, certified data destruction, recovery check in writing. R2v3 facility.
Get Paid for Your Retired IT Equipment
Most companies are sitting on six figures of recoverable IT capital and don’t know it. Minnesota Computers buys retired laptops, servers, switches, storage arrays, networking gear, and mobile devices through our R2v3-certified buyback program. Every transaction includes certified data destruction, serial-level reporting, and a recovery check against signed inventory.

Monitors

Network Devices

Laptops

How the buyback math works
Recovery value depends on three things: the asset class, the condition, and the market for the specific model at the time of evaluation. We pull current secondary-market pricing, factor in refurbishment costs, and produce a recovery estimate before the equipment leaves your dock. No surprises.
Our 5-step buyback process
Pickup scheduling
Once you accept the estimate, we schedule pickup. Standard Twin Cities pickups are same-week. Multi-site or out-of-state engagements are scheduled to fit your refresh calendar.
Evaluation and destruction
Every asset is evaluated against the estimate. Drives are wiped or shredded based on data classification. Recoverable units are refurbished and routed to resale.

Free evaluation
Submit basic inventory — equipment type, approximate quantity, model details if available, and location. Within two business days, we return a recovery estimate in writing.
Chain-of-custody pickup
Signed manifest, tamper-evident seals on every container, GPS-tracked transport.
Recovery payment
You receive a final recovery report with serial-level destruction certificates and a payment for recovered value. Standard payment cycle: 30 days after final report.
Why our buyback program returns more
Why our buyback program returns more Most buyback vendors are brokers — they buy low, mark up, and resell. We’re an R2v3-certified processor. We don’t have to share the margin with a broker because we operate the entire chain. That difference shows up in the recovery check.
