What is Asset Recovery?

Asset recovery is the process of safely removing, evaluating, and reselling or recycling decommissioned IT equipment. Since 2003, TAMS has refined this process, delivering industry-leading resale rates and maintaining a flawless record with zero data breaches.

What We Recover Value From

We recover value from the equipment that’s actually sitting in your racks and closets right now. Servers. Networking gear. Desktops and laptops. Mobile devices. If it has resale value and can be securely wiped, we’ll find a buyer for it. If it doesn’t, we recycle it responsibly instead of letting it pile up.

For larger environments, that often means a full data center decommission, not just a handful of desktops.

Our Asset Recovery Process

We assess your retired equipment on-site or after pickup and map out what has resale value.

Every data-bearing device goes through NAID AAA-certified destruction before it moves anywhere near resale.

Our in-house team tests and restores equipment to resale-ready condition, part of our full range of ITAD services.

We place your assets through our nationwide buyer network and report back with full transparency, including your revenue, through our client portal and monthly reconciliation.
