IT asset value recovery services
Restore Technology rethinks IT asset value recovery
Every business accumulates assets over time, but they can quickly become redundant as technology evolves. This creates a challenge: how to dispose of them securely, sustainably, and cost-effectively. Traditional disposal methods can be expensive, raise security concerns, and contribute to e-waste.
We help businesses extract the maximum value from their end-of-life IT equipment. Our comprehensive approach to value recovery goes beyond simple disposal, and thanks for our scale, capability and experience we offer the best possible return on every asset we process.

How IT asset value recovery works
We want to deliver the best possible value for every IT asset that passes through our processes, and we achieve this by assessing every item on its own merit, and applying a four-stage process to establish the right option for each.
Stage 1: Assessment
Our journey begins with a meticulous assessment of each IT asset. Highly trained technicians utilise a multi-point inspection process to thoroughly evaluate the device’s functionality, cosmetic condition, and technical specifications. This detailed evaluation allows us to assign an accurate grade using industry-standard benchmarks. Our transparent grading system ensures fair market value for your assets, fostering trust and confidence throughout the IT asset disposition process.
Stage 2: We establish current value
Once each asset is graded, our team of market specialists goes to work. Leveraging real-time market data and historical trends, we conduct a comprehensive analysis of current resale values for your specific equipment. This in-depth research allows us to determine the most profitable path for each asset. We ensure you receive the highest possible return.
Stage 3: Augmentation
In some cases, we may identify opportunities to further enhance the value of your assets. Our team of technicians can perform cost-effective upgrades to specific components, such as adding additional RAM or upgrading graphics cards. This strategic augmentation can significantly increase the resale value of specific IT assets, particularly those in high demand. We will always present a clear cost-benefit analysis before recommending any augmentation services, ensuring you have complete control over the process.
Stage 4: The right channel at the right time
Our knowledgeable, expert re-marketing teams will assess each asset and, depending on how they are graded, channel each item either through higher volume, lower-grade, routes for re-sale outside Europe, or to low volume, higher-grade channels through our European partnerships. Where we believe an asset will achieve at least a 30% premium over trade prices, we route it through our e-commerce platforms. This route also works well for specific components, and for Apple devices and parts.
