Offload

We pay you for the fleet. You keep the proof.

Cash for every device you retire — plus one pickup, one document, and no data left behind.

Offload is a bulk buyback and certified data-destruction service for companies, schools, and organizations retiring laptops and phones — we pay you for the fleet, wipe every device the right way, and hand you the paperwork that proves it.

You already paid for those devices once.

Every company, school, and organization with a refresh cycle — or a move, a downsize, or a closed office — ends up holding hundreds, sometimes thousands, of laptops and phones it no longer needs. That's real money sitting unused, and a real risk sitting alongside it: a drive that leaves the building with data still on it doesn't stop being your problem once it's gone.

Most teams don't want to be the reason sensitive information got out, and most don't have the time or staff to responsibly process a large fleet of devices themselves — whether that's a few dozen or a few thousand.

Offload takes the whole batch off your hands, pays you for it, and gives you a certificate proving exactly how each device was handled — some real return on an investment you made years ago, instead of it sitting in a closet worth nothing.

Why teams switch to Offload

Certified destruction

Every drive is Cleared, Purged, or Destroyed under NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2, matched to what the device had access to — not one blanket method for everything.

A document, not a promise

Serial number, method, date, and sign-off — filed with you and kept on our side. If your procurement team asks for proof, you have it before they finish asking.

Paid by the fleet

One quote for the whole batch, one pickup appointment, one payout. No per-unit haggling and no separate line item for the destruction work.

The short version
01

Assess

Send a rough device list or count. We quote the whole batch by volume and condition — no site visit needed to get a number.

02

Pick up

One truck, one appointment. Devices go straight to a secured, access-logged location.

03

Destroy & certify

Each device is sanitized to standard and logged. You get the Certificate of Destruction and the payout together.

About

Built to make one job disappear from your to-do list

Offload exists because retiring a fleet of laptops and phones shouldn't take a committee, a security review, and three vendors to get right.

Why we started this

Offload is a California-based ITAD (IT asset disposition) company built around one job: getting retired business hardware off your books safely. We work with companies handling anywhere from a few dozen devices to several thousand — the batch size changes the size of the truck, not the process.

We started Offload because the two things a company actually needs when it upgrades its fleet — getting paid back for the hardware, and never having to think about it again — usually come from two different vendors, or neither. Most resellers don't want to deal with certified data destruction, and most destruction vendors don't pay you anything for the hardware. We built Offload to be both at once.

Our team comes out of the Bay Area's local IT and device resale world, which means this problem was already familiar before we ever wrote the process down: a closet, a storage unit, or a stack of desks with old laptops and phones that nobody wants to be responsible for.

What we stand for

Security first

Every device is treated like it might still hold something sensitive, because it usually does. The wipe standard is chosen by what the device had access to, not by what's fastest for us.

Straightforward pricing

One quote for the batch, explained in plain terms — what raises it, what doesn't, and nothing that shows up as a surprise on the payout.

Environmental responsibility

Devices that can be resold get a second life. Anything that can't goes to recycling partners who keep e-waste out of landfills and handle it the way it's supposed to be handled.

Who we work with

Most of our clients are IT managers, office managers, and operations leads at growing companies that don't have — and don't want to build — a dedicated asset-disposal function. If your job already has a hundred other things on it, ours is to make this the one thing you don't have to think about twice.

We also work with schools, nonprofits, and other organizations — including ones relocating, downsizing, or closing a space — that end up holding a fleet of retired devices with no easy way to deal with them.

We're currently based in and around the Bay Area, with pickups happening fastest there, and we take on batches anywhere in California by arrangement. As we grow, that radius is only getting bigger.

Process

How a fleet actually leaves your building

Four steps, one appointment, no device leaves without a documented method behind it.

01

Assess & quote

Send a spreadsheet, a photo of the pile, or a rough count — doesn't need to be exact. We quote the batch as a whole, by volume and general condition, so there's no per-laptop negotiation.

02

Get devices ready

If your fleet is on Intune, Jamf, Google Workspace, or a similar system, your IT admin can remotely wipe and unenroll most devices before we arrive — the cleanest path, and we mostly just verify. Without that, Windows machines don't need a password at all (we boot outside the OS to wipe the drive directly); Macs need either an admin login or the FileVault recovery key. We'll tell you exactly what's needed for your batch before pickup day.

03

Pickup & custody

One truck, one appointment. Every device is tagged and logged at pickup, then moved to an access-controlled staging location — not a van that sits overnight. The tag number is what ties the physical device to its eventual certificate line.

04

Sanitize, certify, pay

Windows PCs are Cleared, Purged, or Destroyed depending on what they had access to, following NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2. Macs go through Apple's own secure erase process once we have the login — fast, and just as final, since it discards the encryption key rather than overwriting the whole drive. You receive a Certificate of Destruction — serials, method, date, sign-off — and one consolidated payout for the batch, usually within a few business days.

Windows: the three NIST sanitization methods
CLEAR

Standard overwrite

Software overwrites all addressable storage. Fine for general office machines with nothing beyond routine business use.

PURGE

Crypto erase or physical purge

Destroys the encryption key so the data becomes permanently unreadable, or uses a method resistant to lab-level recovery. The floor for anything that touched financial, HR, or client data.

DESTROY

Physical shredding

The drive is physically shredded to media fragments. Used for anything we can't verify wiped cleanly, or on request for the most sensitive equipment.

Macs are handled separately: once we have the login, Apple's own secure erase process discards the device's encryption key and resets it, which is final by design rather than something we need to run a NIST method against.

Pricing

What determines your offer

Pricing is one quote for the whole batch. Here's what moves that number, and what never touches it.

What moves the offer up

Condition & model

Newer models and devices in better physical condition are worth more — that's always factored into the quote.

Quantity

Bigger batches get a better blended rate. We quote the fleet as a whole, not device by device.

Login access

If you can hand over MDM access or login credentials for the batch, that's less manual work on our end — and it shows up in a stronger offer.

Broken devices don't cost you anything.

A cracked screen, a dead battery, a laptop that won't even power on — none of it lowers your offer. We still take those devices off your hands at no charge, as part of the same batch.

They get the same treatment as everything else: any recoverable data is destroyed to the same standard, whether or not the device still works. Anything that can't be resold is routed to trusted recycling and disposal partners who process it responsibly — keeping it out of landfills and making sure nothing that leaves their facility can be pulled apart for data or cause environmental harm.

No surprises

One quote, nothing added later

Pickup, wiping, and destruction are already baked into the number — there's no separate line item that shows up after the fact.

One consolidated payout

You get paid once for the whole batch, usually within a few business days of pickup — not a trickle of per-device payments.

Every device accounted for

Resold, recycled, or shredded — whatever happens to a unit, it's logged and shows up as a line on your Certificate of Destruction.

Trust & Compliance

The paperwork that actually protects you

The certificate is the product as much as the payout is. Here's what stands behind it.

Built on NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 2

Windows PCs are sanitized and logged against the federal media-sanitization standard, revised in 2025. Macs are handled through Apple's own secure erase, which is verifiably final in its own right.

Chain of custody, start to finish

Every device is tagged at pickup and tracked through staging, sanitization, and resale or recycling. That log is what a certificate line is built from — not a guess after the fact.

Every step documented, not just promised

Pickup, staging, sanitization method, and final disposition are all logged per device — so the certificate you get reflects an actual record, not a verbal assurance.

Working toward R2v3 certification

R2v3 (Responsible Recycling) is the credential most procurement and legal teams ask for before approving a vendor. We're actively pursuing it — ask where we stand when you request a quote.
