Let the old fleet help pay for the new one.
Every refresh creates a pile of retiring IT with real residual value. Maxicom buys the outgoing fleet — servers, laptops, networking, whatever's cycling out — on your rollout schedule, destroys the data with certificates, and returns the value in CAD to offset the new spend. Retirement that funds the upgrade.
The residual value is the budget you're leaving on the table.
When you refresh, the outgoing kit still has value — often enough to meaningfully offset the new purchase. We time the buyback to your rollout so old and new pass cleanly, destroy the data on everything with certificates, and return the recovered value in CAD. It turns a disposal cost into a line that helps fund the upgrade.
Server & storage refresh
Last-generation compute and storage bought back as new platforms land.
Fleet refresh
Retiring laptops and desktops across the business, data wiped per drive.
Network refresh
Switching, routing and firewalls coming out of a network upgrade.
Phased, so nothing goes dark.
- Timed to deployment — we collect the old as the new goes live, wave by wave
- Locked-in valuation — a written offer up front so the residual is a known number in the budget
- Data destroyed per wave — certificates issued as each batch is retired
- One settlement or staged — paid in CAD in one go or per phase, against your PO
Four steps, and you get paid.
Share the refresh plan
Outgoing models, quantities and rollout timeline.
Lock in the valuation
A written CAD offer up front, so the residual is a budget line.
Retire in waves
We collect the old kit as the new deploys, data wiped per batch.
Offset the spend
Value returned in CAD against your PO, in one settlement or staged.
Nothing is resold until your data is destroyed.
Refreshes retire the devices with the most live data — user laptops and production servers. Each is wiped to standard with a certificate as it's retired, keeping the rollout audit-clean.
How we price it — and how to get the best number.
Send an accurate list and you get an accurate price. What moves the offer on a outgoing fleet is specific: the exact make, model and generation; the specification (processors, memory, capacity, ports or media); condition and completeness; the quantity and how matched the lot is; and current demand on the secondary market. Data-bearing media also has to be destroyed, which we build into the deal rather than charge for on top. Because these are event-driven, tell us the trigger and timeline up front and we plan the whole thing around it. The more precise your list, the sharper and faster the written CAD number comes back.
Why sellers choose Maxicom.
We pay, we don't charge
Value recovered and paid in CAD against your PO — not a disposal fee. That single difference is the whole point.
We buy at the source
Direct from businesses, decommissions and the trade — so prices are keener and stock has a known history.
Honest about data & certs
NIST 800-88 / IEEE 2883 with a certificate per drive. No R2, e-Stewards, ISO or NAID AAA badges we don't hold.
We take the whole lot
Mixed conditions, faulty units, whole estates — one deal, not cherry-picking the easy items.
We respect the trade
Resellers' and ITADs' stock moves through our network on NDA, never back into your own market.
Documented, audit-ready
A written line-item offer, chain of custody, and certificates — the paperwork your auditor and privacy officer expect.
