Where to donate servers in NoVA?
Posted by: IT Guy ()

We just got some new servers and I need to get rid of the old ones. I'm hoping to donate them to get a tax deduction. Anybody know where I can drop these off? They're towers if that makes any difference.

I'm tired of people writing me trying to get me to donate my old server equipment. I work for an NPO, so there is no benefit to donating them for me. You want to know how to donate them? Put them on Craigslist and someone will email you within a couple of hours asking for them as a donation. You're welcome.

This, and specify it is for charitable donations or IRS-registered 503b organizations. "Tower servers" isn't too descriptive, make sure you look up some specifications on what is in the box so technical people can read your post and make a decision. I'm guessing they are crappy and old and no one will want them, please don't waste their time by having them contact you for the specs, put them in the Craigslist post.

If you get no takers, there are a couple of electronics recycling events in the county each month.

Easy way to do this is to put the PN or make and model number into Google, find a page with specs for that item and copy/paste. Have at it!!
