  • 1.  Legit Device Recycling companies

    Posted 05-10-2024 10:53 AM

    Good morning,

    We are looking to selling old devices to one of the companies that buys older devices (iPads and Laptops). Does anyone out there have someone who you would recommend. We are in Gainesville, FL if that matters (proximity).

    Thank you for your suggestions.

    @Donna Muller-We have used a few companies over the years, as there is a great market for these devices. The vast majority of these companies will work with you from anywhere in the country, sending you all of the packing materials and arranging for the pickup of the materials. I would highly recommend shopping your equipment around, as you can often get the companies to better their offer.

    During our last device refresh, we used MacOfAllTrades-https://www.macofalltrades.com/-and were very happy. Previously, we used TechExchgange/CoreTek-https://coretekenterprises.com/-which were also very good.

    We've worked with Diamond Assets for the last several cycles. They've been great to work with and very accommodating of our needs, especially during COVID.

    I don't have a recommendation, but something to look for is an R2 certification that covers environmental impact, health/safety, and data security standards for electronics recycling.

    Hi Donna,

    While we haven't officially used AGI Repair, I have reached out to them numerous times in the past to inquire about device parts and extended warranty information. They have always been extremely responsive and helpful, so may be a good one to check out.

    Thanks,

    Vicki
