Liquidator/consignment recommendations?

[sfbayzfs]

Hi all,

I am doing an urgent massive reduction of my homelab, and I had a last minute issue with one liquidator, and need to find a new one.

Every company I have worked on servers at sells/consigns old hardware to a liquidator, but there are so many, and I don't remember which ones are reliable.

Also, I need one which will remove servers from a residence in Oakland (not just roll entire racks out of datacenters)

Does anyone have any good experiences with any local (SF Bay area) liquidators/consignment services who can handle this?

Thanks in advance!

Honestly, having dealt with multiple liquidators, you will be hard pressed to find many that will deal with a small residential setup. It's just not worth their time generally. If you do find a willing one, expect them to offer a pittance for your hardware. You would be lucky to get anywhere near what you've listed in your FS thread.

Would provide recommendations, but the one Bay Area one I've worked with only deals in components and not full ITAD.

Thanks for the advice/realism - I may have found a good one, I'll post if it goes well!
