Maxicom buys used, surplus and decommissioned servers across Singapore and Malaysia — Dell PowerEdge, HPE ProLiant, Lenovo ThinkSystem, Cisco UCS, Supermicro and more. We pay for the value inside (CPUs, memory, drives and boards), wipe every drive to NIST 800-88, and pay in SGD. From a single rack in a CBD comms room to a full row coming out of a Johor data centre — send your list and we'll price it.
A modern enterprise server is a dense bundle of the exact components the secondary market wants most: registered DDR4/DDR5 memory, current and prior-generation Xeon and EPYC processors, enterprise SSDs and NVMe, and boards with real reuse value. When a bank in Raffles Place refreshes, or a colocation tenant in Jurong or a hyperscale operator in Iskandar decommissions a row, that hardware still has years of service left in it for a buyer elsewhere. We recover and remarket it, which is why we can pay for a decommissioned server rather than charge to take it.
The alternative routes leave money on the table: a scrap dealer pays metal weight, and an OEM trade-in gives a credit locked to buying more of the same brand. We pay cash value, in SGD, for any make.
Model families are global; the price turns on generation, configuration and condition. A sample of what we actively buy:
Singapore packs an unusual concentration of enterprise compute into a small footprint: financial institutions under MAS oversight, government and GLC systems, telcos and a mature colocation market all refresh on tight cycles. Next door, the Johor–Iskandar corridor has become one of the region's hottest data-centre build zones, and with new capacity comes migration, consolidation and the first waves of decommissioned kit. Both produce a steady flow of well-maintained servers with real secondary value — and both are within our collection footprint.
| Scrap yard | OEM trade-in | Maxicom | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Do you get paid? | Metal weight only | Credit toward new servers | Cash value in SGD |
| Any brand? | Yes, as scrap | Only the OEM's own | Any make and generation |
| Data destruction | Not reliable | Varies by programme | NIST 800-88 + certificate per drive |
| Decommissioning | No | No | De-rack, label, remove on chain of custody |
| Collection | You deliver | You ship | Free in Singapore; arranged in Malaysia |
No server leaves your control with data on it. Drives are sanitised to NIST 800-88 (HDD) and IEEE 2883-2022 (SSD/NVMe) with a certificate of destruction, on a documented chain of custody; unwipeable drives are physically destroyed through a vetted partner. For MAS-regulated firms we can align to your internal TRM controls and support witnessed destruction — the evidence your auditor needs, built into the deal.
Every data-bearing drive is sanitised to NIST SP 800-88 Rev. 1 (HDD) and IEEE 2883-2022 (SSD/NVMe), with a certificate of destruction, on a documented chain of custody. Drives that can't be wiped are physically destroyed through a vetted partner. Certified destruction is what makes buyback safe under Singapore's PDPA and Malaysia's PDPA — so it's included in the deal, not billed as an extra.
Offices and corporates clearing space · IT teams running a refresh · data centres decommissioning across Singapore and the Johor/Iskandar corridor · banks, healthcare and government needing certified data destruction · schools and universities · and resellers, distributors, ITADs and MSPs clearing surplus and client stock. One unit or a warehouse — the process is the same, and the paperwork always holds up.
Send your server list or a rack photo and we'll come back with a written SGD offer and a collection date.
