Device Buyback

Turn retired devices into funding for your next refresh

When a refresh leaves your district with surplus devices, a buyback recovers their value and puts it toward your next technology priority. Cell Mechanic reviews your fleet, matches every device with the buyer who pays the most for it, and handles the details from quote to pickup.

How it works

After you're paid, start again at Review for your next refresh.

  1. 1 Review.

    We look at your device list and condition.

  2. 2 Match.

    Each device goes to the buyer who pays the most for it.

  3. 3 Pick up.

    We collect your devices on a schedule that fits your batch and location.

  4. 4 Get paid.

    We pool the value and pay your district by check, or as service credit with us.

Partners

We pair your devices with the best buyers to maximize your return.

We work with several buyback partners, and each device goes to the one that pays the most for it. A few we're proud to highlight:

Second Life Mac. Our Apple specialist. They pay more than anyone for iPads, MacBooks, iMacs and other Apple products.
STS Electronic Recycling. Windows laptops and desktops, R2-certified recycling, and the other tech most places don't even take.
