Make room after an office upgrade or a storage-room cleanout. Foothill Electronics Pickup reviews working, broken and untested electronics from local small and midsize businesses. Start with the equipment types, quantities and your ZIP. We call to review the pickup before confirming. Accepted, confirmed pickups are free.

Office electronics we can review
- Computers and laptops: desktops, mini PCs, Macs, laptops and related peripherals.
- Phones and tablets: including devices that no longer start. Tell us about account locks, management controls or battery damage.
- Audio and disc equipment: receivers, amplifiers, speakers, DVD and Blu-ray players.
- Related accessories: the power supplies, chargers, remotes and useful cables you already have.
Specialist commercial equipment, large quantities and items outside these examples need individual review. We agree on the actual items before collection; a request does not commit us to clearing an entire office. Read the full collection list and exclusions, including damaged batteries, broken CRT tubes and large appliances.
A simple plan for the pickup
- Count and describe the equipment. List each type, its quantity and whether it works, is broken or is untested. Add a model if it is easy to read. Photos are optional; keep customer records and private screens out of them.
- Choose an authorized contact. Someone from your business should confirm which equipment can leave and coordinate any IT preparation.
- Review the arrangements by phone. We discuss the actual address, loading and access, the agreed items and the proposed window. Wait for confirmation before moving equipment to a collection point.
Keep equipment your business is retaining separate from the agreed pickup items. Tell us if the list changes before collection. For a step-by-step preparation list, use our office electronics cleanout checklist.
Prepare business data before handoff
Have your authorized IT contact back up and check anything you need, then follow the manufacturer’s account-removal instructions and your organization’s transfer process. Tell us about managed, locked or failed devices. Do not send passwords, recovery keys, employee files or customer records.
At pickup, we record the equipment received and obtain the required storage-processing authorization. Erasure is verified before data-bearing equipment or parts are released for reuse; if erasure cannot be verified, the affected storage is physically destroyed. A collection receipt does not mean that processing is already complete. Read the data-preparation guide and pickup terms.
