I was initially pretty worried about contracting the disposition out, but they did a great job and the return check really helped our budget out.
Richard
Data Center Manager – Hosting Company
We had some pretty strict policies going into the project. exIT’s team followed them to a T and saved us a lot of headache.
David
CTO – Software Company
We had a fairly monstrous P to V migration, and it became apparent very early on that we needed help. Without them I think we were destined for disaster.
Richard E

General I.T. FAQ's
About $1,000 worth or any combination of used IT including used ram, used hard drives HHDs, used SSDs, used processors or CPUs, used memory or ram, used servers, used computers, used networking, or similar used IT equipment you have to liquidate.
If you’re not sure if what you have qualifies, just contact us below to let us know what you have and we’ll be glad to help out!
Standard packing materials is simply not sufficient to protect your IT assets during the shipping process. We are happy to provide shipping materials for your IT assets and shipping insurance free of charge.
A good rule of thumb is to leave no wiggle room for any parts whatsoever. CPU and RAM trays should be taped together, servers should be packed in form fitting polyurethane foam, and GPUs should have custom foam boxes. For more information consult our IT packing instructions page.
As with any IT, the value is primarily based upon age.
Another significant factor with networking equipment is the speed of data transfer.
With switches, the number of ports is also determinative of value.
For a complete valuation, feel free to submit your HBA cards, switches, firewalls, routers, or other networking equipment below and we’ll get back to you with a quote.
We understand that when you sell your computers online, you want to get the best deal in the most convenient way possible. We strive to provide a service that does just that. You don’t have to worry about pricing, fees, or finding buyers like on ecommerce sites. All you have to do is provide a list of what you’ve got and you’ll get a fast purchase offer. We also make shipping effortless and provide all of the materials and labels. Additionally, we’re R2 certified so you don’t have to worry about your data security, and we can take any of your recyclable materials along with the material you’re looking to sell.
Not to worry, we actually specialize in bulk/ wholesale transactions.
Depending on the situation, we can handle the logistics a few ways.
If you have thousands of computers and work stations spread across different locations, we’ll need to coordinate with your IT department.
We want to make sure we help you minimize labor costs. We can handle the majority of the heavy lifting while we rely on your IT staff to direct us and ensure we’re complying with all of the necessary policies.
For single location jobs that aren’t so complex, we can simply come in and take care of everything for you.
Selling computers in bulk doesn’t have to be a hassle with exIT, so just drop in a spreadsheet or give a ring and we’ll get the process started.
Sorry, but we only deal in wholesale.
If you have a single computer to sell, your best bet is probably just to list it online or trade it in to someone like Best Buy or Amazon.
Best of luck!
It depends on the specific setup.
Things like antminers, we typically are not interested in purchasing, but mining rigs that are primarily composed of GPUs that haven’t been overclocked too hard are certainly of interest.
If you aren’t sure, feel free to fill out a quote form with your mining rig’s card specs and we’ll get back to you soon.

If you already have an updated inventory list with server specs on it that would be ideal. Alternatively, if you can send us a picture of a tag from every model of server you have along with the quantity and a general idea of the components inside, that will be sufficient for a reasonable estimate. If you know the model numbers and can provide details on the components for every server, we can provide a very precise quote for your HP servers.
The resale value of supermicro servers is primarily based upon the residual value of three primary components: drives, RAM, and CPUs. The following is a full list of components and what determines their contribution to the value of your supermicro servers. Besides that:
- Condition
- Brand new, refurbished, used, etc.
- Total Storage Density
- 5 TB, 10TB, 25TB, 50TB, etc
- Total RAM
