Sell Redundant Hardware to Covenco with Our Buy-back Service
With hardware prices projected to rise significantly in the coming months, the strategic imperative is twofold: securing next-generation infrastructure at competitive rates while extracting the absolute maximum value from redundant assets.
At Covenco, we specialise in bridging this gap. We regularly purchase entire data centres and server rooms, providing a seamless transition for organisations reaching the end of a typical three-year refresh cycle. When OEM warranties expire or systems approach end-of-life, the ‘buy-back’ value of your hardware represents a vital capital injection for your next project.
Our Proven 8-Step Buy-Back Process
Our ISO 27001-accredited process ensures that your compliance obligations are met while guaranteeing the best possible market price.
- Enquiry: Your request is handled by an experienced account manager who provides a same-day response (start your enquiry below).
- Quotation: We provide a valuation within 24 hours based on current global market trades.
- Collection: We offer a secure collection service, treating your hardware with the same care as our own.
- Assessment: Equipment is tested at our Banbury facility by certified technicians to confirm functionality.
- Payment: We guarantee fast processing, typically via bank transfer, within 21 days.
- Sanitisation: Secure data erasure is performed on all data-bearing assets, with options for DOD or MOD standards.
- Refurbishment: Assets are repaired, upgraded, or updated.
- Restocking/Recycling: Equipment is returned to the circular economy or responsibly recycled according to raw material values.
Introducing the Covenco Buy-Back Service
Covenco has created a clear, practical guide to how our buy-back service works and the value it can unlock from your existing hardware.
Why Sell to Covenco now?
The current economic climate demands more than just a disposal service; it requires a partnership that understands the complexities of the secondary market and the rigours of corporate compliance.
- Expert Decommissioning: We reduce the complexity of hardware disposal. Our teams are experts at de-mounting hardware and transporting it safely from your data centre to our engineering facility.
- Maximum Financial Return: Because we trade daily in global markets, we ensure you receive a fair market price that reflects the true value of your redundant assets.
- Combined Proposals: For those looking to optimise their budget, we can provide a combined proposal. By offsetting the cost of new equipment against the buy-back value of your old hardware, you can significantly lower your total cost of ownership.
- Sustainability & Compliance: Our commitment to the circular economy ensures that all assets are either re-used or routed to approved recycling facilities. We provide full certification to demonstrate successful data sanitisation for your audit trails.
