IT Asset Disposition: Wipe, Resell, or Redeploy in Any Country
A laptop with an ex-employee abroad. No way to wipe it. Written off as e-waste.
Tequipy runs IT asset disposition for distributed teams. A returned or retired device is collected wherever the employee is, wiped with a certificate, then resold for cash or redeployed. Nothing gets written off, and the proof is ready for an audit. In 180+ countries, on devices you didn't buy from us too.
What IT asset disposition changes for your team
You get the device back, not a $1,500-2,500 write-off
Someone leaves in a country with no office. Getting the laptop back is no one's job. It sits with them for months, then gets written off. That's $1,500-2,500 of hardware, and the data on it, gone.
The device comes back instead of being written off. Wherever the employee is, you get the machine and the data on it back, not another loss on the books.
You can prove every device was wiped, not just hope it was
When a SOC 2 or ISO review asks how you proved each retired device was wiped, the honest answer is a forwarded email. There's no certificate, and no record of who handled it.
When the auditor asks, you show a wipe certificate for each device and a signed record of who handled it from pickup to warehouse, instead of a forwarded email.
The remote employee's laptop comes back, not just the ones in the office
A contractor in Bogotá or an engineer in Manila offboards, and they're too far for a normal ITAD vendor to reach. So the device stays with them and gets written off. Traditional ITAD collects from offices, not from a person working abroad.
The remote employee a normal ITAD vendor can't reach gets their device collected and back in your inventory, through 600+ local partners in 180+ countries. No one is too far to recover from.
You get money back or a reused machine, not a cupboard of old laptops
Recovered devices pile up in a cupboard or get thrown out. Hundreds of dollars of value in each one, never recovered, and good machines never reused.
You get cash back for each device, 20-70% of its value, or a working machine your next hire uses instead of one you buy. Nothing sits in a cupboard losing value.
You pay when someone leaves, not every month whether they do or not
The platforms that offer disposition bundle it into a monthly fee, so you pay every month whether anyone offboards or not. And some charge $150-200 just to collect and wipe one device.
Offboarding is $70-150 per device, and only when someone actually leaves. Nothing in the quiet months. You pay for the work, not a monthly fee whether you use it or not.
What makes IT asset disposition work on one platform
Certified wipe and destruction
Every returned device gets a certified Blancco data wipe, or a certificate of destruction where a device must be destroyed. Proof of erasure on each one, ready for a compliance file.
Collected from any employee, in 180+ countries
Tequipy contacts the employee, sends packaging, and schedules a courier pickup at their address, through 600+ local partners. The same process whether they are in London or Kazakhstan.
Full chain of custody, ISO 27001
Every device is tracked from the employee's hands to the warehouse, with a signed, auditable chain of custody. Tequipy is ISO 27001 certified and hosts in Europe.
Resell for cash or redeploy
Each device is condition-assessed and either bought back at 20 to 70% of its value or wiped and redeployed to a new hire. Capital recovered, or a machine reused, instead of e-waste.
Works on any device, bought anywhere
Disposition runs on devices you bought before Tequipy too. Upload them by CSV, then offboard, wipe, store, resell, or redeploy any of them.
How RemoFirst went from writing off devices to 100% recovery across 30 countries
RemoFirst, an employer-of-record platform operating in 185+ countries, had no reliable way to collect and reset devices left behind after offboarding in places like Colombia, the UK, or Kazakhstan. Machines stayed with ex-employees, and some were simply written off.
With Tequipy handling collection, certified wipe, and the chain of custody, RemoFirst now recovers 100% of company devices after offboarding, against a 71% market standard. It has prevented roughly $2,000 per employee in asset losses across 30 countries.
