Data center equipment buyers in Jena

The equipment in a decommissioned Jena facility has real residual value, and it is almost always higher than a scrap yard will tell you. Modular UPS power modules, low-mileage gensets, recent-generation chillers, current server platforms and clean busway all resell into a working secondary market. We pay against that market, then subtract our own removal cost openly rather than burying it.

02

What Louisiana conditions mean for your number

We treat Louisiana as one service area rather than a list of cities. Crews moving between New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Shreveport and Lafayette pass through Jena regularly, which is why a single UPS or a couple of cabinets is still worth quoting here — we can add it to an existing run instead of pricing a dedicated trip.

03

What we buy in Jena

Three-phase, modular and monolithic

UPS Systems

We buy three-phase uninterruptible power supplies out of live and decommissioned white space: modular frames, monolithic units, matching battery cabinets and the static switches that go with them.

10 kVA – 2.5 MVA modules
Floor-mount, RPP and rack PDUs

PDUs

Floor-mount PDUs with integral transformers, remote power panels, and metered or switched rack PDUs by the pallet — we buy all three tiers of distribution.

50 kVA – 1000 kVA floor units
Overhead track, tap boxes, elbows

Busway

Overhead busway is the most reusable thing in a white space and the most commonly thrown away. We buy full runs, tap-off boxes, elbows and end feeds.

225 A – 5000 A runs
LV and MV, ATS, breakers

Switchgear

Low-voltage lineups, medium-voltage metal-clad gear, automatic transfer switches and loose breakers — bought as complete lineups or section by section.

480 V – 38 kV lineups
Diesel and gas, enclosed or open

Generators

Standby diesel and natural gas generator sets, sub-base and belly tanks, paralleling gear and radiator packages — running or not.

100 kW – 3 MW standby sets
Air-cooled, water-cooled, CRAH/CRAC

Chillers

Air-cooled and water-cooled chillers, cooling towers, CRAC and CRAH units, pumps and dry coolers — the whole mechanical plant.

50 – 2000 ton capacity
Compute, storage, network, GPU

Servers

Rackmount compute, storage arrays, network gear and GPU nodes — bought by the rack or by the hall, with documented data destruction.

Single racks – full halls
Everything the equipment sits in

Data Center Infrastructure

Cabinets, containment, cable tray, raised floor, fiber and copper plant — the structure everything else was mounted in.

How a project runs

The sequence for a Jena project is short. You send an asset list or a few photos. We come back the same business day with a written, itemized offer and a proposed removal window. If you accept, we survey access — dock, freight elevator, door widths, floor loading, whether the room is still live — then mobilize, de-energize, rack out, rig, load and sweep. You get payment before the trailer leaves and settlement documentation after.

05

How the offer is built

In some cases the equipment value exceeds our removal cost and you receive a payment; in others, on older or heavily stripped rooms, the removal cost exceeds the value and the project nets toward zero or a modest fee. We tell you which one you are looking at up front for your Jena site rather than discovering it halfway through demolition.

06

Data security and compliance

Nothing leaves a Jena site undocumented. Asset tags and serials are recorded as equipment comes out, drives are separated and handled under their own chain of custody, and you receive a reconciled report that your security team can file against the original asset register.

07

What you are actually buying from us

01

We do the decommissioning

Our crews rack out the hardware, de-energize and pull the electrical distribution, recover refrigerant, drain glycol, cut and cap piping, and break down containment and cabinets. You are not hiring a broker who then hires a rigger who then hires a hauler. One company, one point of contact, one insurance certificate.

02

We do the loading

Rigging, lift and crane work, dock plates, pallets, stretch wrap, load bars, straps and the trucks themselves are ours. Overhead busway comes down on lifts. Generators and chillers go out on cranes. Servers leave palletized and manifested. Nothing about the load-out becomes your problem.

03

Payment before the truck leaves

You are paid in full before equipment leaves your dock — wire, company check or cashier's check, your choice. No consignment, no percentage of eventual resale, no invoice you have to chase. The racks stay where they are until the money has landed.

04

Drive destruction, documented

Every data-bearing device is degaussed and physically destroyed, on your floor if you prefer. You receive a certificate of destruction listing serial numbers and a chain-of-custody record signed at each handoff, formatted so your audit team can reconcile it against your asset register.

05

The room is left clean

Floor tiles reset, penetrations patched, abandoned cable removed, debris hauled, and the space swept. Where a landlord or lease requires a specific restoration standard, we work to it and document the result with photographs before and after.

06

Written offers that hold

Quotes are written, itemized by category, and hold for thirty days. If your process needs a formal bid document, a W-9, a certificate of insurance naming your entity, or a purchase order reference on the offer, say so and it is on the paperwork.

Transformers, switchgear and general electrical apparatus are bought under dedicated programs, on the same terms:

Frequently asked questions

Do you actually buy data center equipment in Jena, or just broker it?
We buy it. Data Center Equipment Buyer is the purchaser of record — we fund the purchase, we send our own crews to Jena to decommission and load, and we take title when the equipment leaves your dock. There is no third-party buyer waiting behind us to approve the price.
What is the smallest job you will take in Jena?
A single UPS, one generator, a few PDUs or a handful of cabinets is worth a call. Because we route crews across Louisiana continuously, small Jena pickups can usually be added to an existing run rather than priced as a dedicated trip.
How fast can you get to a Jena site?
Written offers go out the same business day in almost every case. Once an offer is accepted, typical mobilization to Jena is a few business days for straightforward removals and one to two weeks for large halls that need phased shutdowns, rigging plans or landlord coordination.
Do you handle the decommissioning, or do we have to shut it down first?
We handle it. Our crews rack out IT, de-energize and remove distribution, recover refrigerant under EPA rules, drain and cap glycol loops, break down containment and cabinets, and sweep the space. If the Jena room is still live we phase the work so load transfers cleanly.
How do you handle drives and data in Jena?
Drives are separated and tracked by serial number. You choose NIST 800-88 wiping, degaussing or physical shredding, and shredding can happen on site in Jena if your policy requires it. You receive a serialized certificate of destruction reconciled against your asset list.
When do we get paid?
Before the equipment leaves your Jena dock. Wire, company check or cashier's check, whichever your accounting department prefers. On large phased projects we pay per load as it ships rather than holding everything to the end.
