Donating as a small business
One computer or a dozen
You don't need a big refresh to donate. A single desktop from the back office or a handful of laptops from a small team can help a student or a local nonprofit.
How it works
Fill out the form with your devices and photos. Single devices are shipped after approval, at your cost. Larger groups can be picked up.
Reset each device or remove the drives before shipping or pickup.
Your data
We wipe every device with Acronis before reuse. A certificate of data destruction is available on request.
Receipts and the tax side
Giving Center, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, provides a written acknowledgment listing the equipment received. For equipment your business depreciated, the deduction is generally limited to its remaining tax basis, so fully depreciated equipment may deduct little or nothing.
Starting with the 2026 tax year, C corporations can deduct charitable gifts only above 1% of taxable income, up to 10%. Ask your tax advisor how a donation fits your situation. Our tax guide explains the rules in more detail.
From list to pickup
We review every donation before anything moves. We can't promise acceptance or a timeline, but we'll reply with next steps.
