Fill out our request a quote form form now to obtain your no-obligation quote.

What kind of equipment is eligible?

IBM can dispose of most IT equipment commonly in service, regardless of their brand. This includes:

  • PC Servers
  • Notebook PCs
  • Desktop PCs
  • Laser Printers
  • Monitors

What do I do about data on my hard drives?

You are responsible for removal of all company data prior to return of an asset to IBM. However, we do offer an optional disk sanitisation and cleansing service to ensure proper overwrite of your data. Hard-file data is cleansed via a 3x overwrite process* so that data is virtually impossible to recover.

*Disk overwrite service is offered in selected countries only.

How do I send my assets to IBM?

IBM Global Asset Recovery Solutions offers services that include pickup at your location. We will provide instructions, including pickup and shipping to our designated location.

What does it cost?

Freight may be free of charge, depending on the marketability of the product.

Where a freight cost is involved, a quote will be provided based on the quantity of assets, their type and the locations from which they must be collected. IBM's buying power enables us to achieve extremely competitive freight rates.

Whether your assets have market value or not, you'll find out before you commit to anything by receiving a quote directly from IBM.

How long is my trade-in quote good for?

When will I get my cheque?

Once we receive your equipment, we inspect it to ensure that the equipment is identical to what was agreed and send a cheque within 45 days.

What happens if my system has no marketable value?

IBM Global Asset Recovery Solutions provides an environmentally safe disposal option for assets without market value in accordance with environmental guidelines and national laws.

How can I get started?

Simply request a quote using this form and an IBM representative will contact you within 3 business days. You'll need information including processor type and speed, RAM, and hard drive capacity for PCs and servers, monitor size, printer speed, and condition of the equipment.
