Data center equipment buyers in Scissors
A data hall retirement in Scissors usually involves three trades: an electrician to de-energize and disconnect, a rigger to move heavy power and cooling equipment, and a hauler to get it off site. Coordinating three vendors around one shutdown window is where these projects go sideways. We collapse all three into one contract and pay you for the equipment on top of it.
What Texas conditions mean for your number
The Infomart and 2323 Bryan Street in Dallas anchor one of the largest interconnection markets in the country, ERCOT's separate grid shapes how power infrastructure is specified and retired, and Gulf Coast ports plus five interstate corridors make Texas the easiest large state to move heavy equipment out of. In practical terms, Scissors projects benefit from that density: we already run crews through Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, Austin and San Antonio, so mobilization is a scheduling question rather than a cost problem.
What we buy in Scissors
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 modulesFloor-mount, RPP and rack PDUsPDUs
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 unitsOverhead track, tap boxes, elbowsBusway
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 runsLV and MV, ATS, breakersSwitchgear
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 lineupsDiesel and gas, enclosed or openGenerators
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 setsAir-cooled, water-cooled, CRAH/CRACChillers
Air-cooled and water-cooled chillers, cooling towers, CRAC and CRAH units, pumps and dry coolers — the whole mechanical plant.
50 – 2000 ton capacityCompute, storage, network, GPUServers
Rackmount compute, storage arrays, network gear and GPU nodes — bought by the rack or by the hall, with documented data destruction.
Single racks – full hallsEverything the equipment sits inData Center Infrastructure
Cabinets, containment, cable tray, raised floor, fiber and copper plant — the structure everything else was mounted in.
Cabinets, tray, containment, floorHow a project runs
If the Scissors room is still carrying load, we phase it. Typically that means IT and racks first, then distribution, then the power and cooling plant once the last circuit is dead. We write the phasing into the offer so nobody is improvising in the hall at 2am.
How the offer is built
We do not lowball and then renegotiate on the dock, which is the most common complaint we hear about this industry. If the asset list you send matches what our crew finds in Scissors, the written price is the price we pay. If it does not match — batteries missing, a unit already cannibalized, different model numbers — we show you exactly which line changed and why.
Data security and compliance
Nothing leaves a Scissors 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.
What you are actually buying from us
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
